Edit: i just double-checked the numbers and realized the "new girl" i put my points into already has numbers that heavily favor BE... Any chance i can make an adjustment to my points? Say, like, taking all 64 that i put into Bust and moving them into Height? XD

qzar9999: NO problem! But then again, I told you that already.
THANKS!

The growth via check point system you've put in place is an interesting choice, but it doesn't seem to interact well with the second donation gal you introduced midway through the process. In essence, rather than a single 10 step progression, it's become essentially two 5 step progressions. The first girl grows until the second is introduced, at which point she remains largely static for the next 5 steps.
Given your works, I'd assume that many of your readers are fans of the "process", as it were. It seems like it might work better to stretch the two girls growth over the entire sequence, rather than fewer large poofy spurts, although this would likely mean completing the donation drive before producing images. My two cents, anyways.
I'll also take the opportunity to comment on the latest volume of Grow. I've read through issue 4 (issue 5 will have to wait a few months as I'm afraid my donation has eaten my budget for such things). I've enjoyed your past work, including the mini-gts content. However, speaking solely for myself, I found the size differential between cast members got a bit much in the later half of the latest volume. Again, I mean only to express my personal opinion; I understand that there are many who greatly enjoyed it (some of whom most likely did so for the very reasons I did not).
Not having read the final issue, I can't say for certain, but comments seem to indicate that the heroine keeps at least a fair portion of her increased size. This seems like a departure from the earlier grow comics, wherein the cast is usually at least somewhere back near where they started (or will be eventually, although they may get up to more growth hijinx in the future). It also seems to represent something of a broken aesop. Earlier in the tale, if I recall correctly, the protagonist essentially comes to the realization that he loves the heroine regardless of her size. It seems strange then that she would be stuck as essentially his fetish (although the story does indicate that she rather enjoys being large in some cases), especially given the logistical problems her scale would impose long term. I'm over thinking things, I know; and as I mentioned before I could simply be way off.
All that being said, I've greatly enjoyed your works, and look forward to your next production, though I may sit out future gts-centric works.

vakladros: Thanks for the donation! (I am sure I sent you an email as well).
As for the assigning of grOwth points, I added the second grOw girl because of the incredible amount of high-level donations which all receive bonus points because of their generous donations. Where I thought I would hit maybe 300 to 350 inches of total growth, I had surpassed this figure very early in the Fundraiser. (Hell, I ended up with over 872 inches of growth in total!! Yowza!) I know some people lose interest if growth becomes TOO big, so I offered
an option of applying it to a new grOw girl. This was only an option, of course, and many people still wanted to add it to the already huge Doreen. Doreen will continue to grow, along side the new girl. The good thing is, while there will be a frame or 2 where all points will be added to the new girl, this was by the
donators choice, not mine. This way, everyone got involved!
You should have purchased the newest chapter, and donated later — I would have understood!
This way, you could enjoy the series ender. I think I wrapped up your dilemma on the ending (which you haven't seen yet). In fact, it has to do with the title and the relationship the characters have over the course of the series.
I am glad you've enjoyed my work, and appreciate the continued $upport immensely! This was my first GTS-centirc work for grOw. There may be more, but the next project will be BE-focused. Not everything is for everyone, so I understand if you "sit out" on a GTS theme, but you should like be able to enjoy the next project.
