ScriptToon samples

Short hand-drawn cartoons rendered from a Markdown storyboard. Each one below was made from someone's README or launch post on DEV, unasked, and left in their comments as a gift. Thirty-one so far. Sixteen replies from authors in the threads; two asked for a correction (which way a groove drifts, how GiffyPy is pronounced), and both shots were re-rendered. The engine and the cut-out character module are a package: ScriptToon on Payhip. If you'd rather have one made for your project, that's a separate listing: done-for-you explainer.
