Description
It should be explained for anybody doesn't know who Charlotte Braun. She was a girl that came into Peanuts as a counterpart of Charlie Brown. That role was taken by Sally eventually. Her habit of talking loudly was eventually taken by Lucy. But since the character wasn't very developed, Schulz decided to drop the character. In 2000, it was discovered that there was a letter written in 1955 by a reader who disliked the character, which was responded by Schulz saying that he was already planning to discontinue her. He reminded the reader and her friends that they would have the death of an innocent child on their conscience, and would they be prepared to accept such responsibility? At the end of the letter there was a picture of Charlotte Braun with an ax in her head. Her strips were never reprinted until they came out with The Complete Peanuts second volume, which Mort is reading there. Oh ya one more thing. Mort is back! Haven't seen him since July.Here's the ref for it. [link] Wikipedia is your friend.

I know, that's why I said before, even though by the looks of it, parts of Charlotte's soul must've INDEED inhibited both Sally and Lucy! XD

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
idk I can't remember I would have to go ask my dad tomarow. And I would ask him a few questions about the creater for you. It's hard to lisn to my dad sometimes tho cuz he talks to fast and he would talk about something thats off the subject. Is there any certen questions that you whant me to ask my dad for you?

Thanx. sorry for not responding to the email you sent. As soon as I get the next comic set up in Photoshop, I'll be recording a video of the coloring of one of the panels from start to finish.

dude...its TOTALLY understandable...i feel guilty that ur doing as much as it is already...you also need not spend SO much times on my mails...i don`t wanna irritate you...i kinda expected that you say a few sentances here and there as most ppl would do...my intent was not to become a burden by u having to type long mails....so please, take ur time
I won`t hold silence against you...although i like ur advice

Ok I've gotten the thing made I just need to get it sent. Most vid sites have a 100 mb limit and I don't really want to upload it without sound, do you have aim or Yahoo? or any chat service that lets you send things to each other. It's a 235mb file and 20min long, but it shows the process of coloring a panel start to finish with Posey.

hmm....i have msn...and yahoo email...erm...if you zip it, will it compress even more by any chance? I can`t imagine my employers will be impressed if im the reason that we were "capped" on our broadband.....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OK I sent it in a zip file, hopefully it worked since I used yousendit.com and this is the first time. Got it down to 61mb from 720mb so that's as small as its gonna get without screwing with the quality.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that size is acceptable thanks
HUGE HUGE difference when zipped aint it?
thank you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
nah actually I zipped it from 200 some odd mb I compressed it down from 700 before getting it down that low.
