Re: New comic needs feedback

The thing I immediately noticed about your site design is that there seem to be some white lines around the edges of your navigation buttons that keep them from looking at home on the black background. In terms of the art - I tend to prefer digital coloring, if only because once you know it it isn'...

Re: New comic needs feedback

As far as text goes while using photoshop- use the text tool to put in your dialogue. Then make a new layer, and use the ellipse tool to make white bubbles, and the polygonal lasso to add tails. When you've made all your text bubbles, and slid the layer behind your lettering, go into Layers -> laye...

Re: New comic needs feedback

I suggest getting some software. I'm a personal fan of Photoshop, but there are a lot of cheaper alternatives, like the Gimp, or Paint-Shop Pro. Hell, even Comic Life (which comes free with any mac nowadays) and, though I shudder to utter the name, MS Paint, can be used to put in text bubbles and l...

Re: New comic needs feedback

First of all, I'd suggest investing in some decent drawing pens to darken your lines with, since some of the art comes in really pale. While it's true that a lot of published comics are hand-lettered, I don't recommend it unless you have the world's best penmanship. My handwriting hasn't improved s...

Re: How far in advance do you usually upload?

I usually upload new comic, oh, about an hour before they are scheduled to go up. Speaking of which I have an update tonight, so I better go start that now.

New comic needs feedback

http://misadventuresofamatoraccoon.comicgenesis.com/ So I have a new webcomic up now and I think I am getting things down a little better. I could use some feedback and critiques on... well just about everything. If you have any comments/complaints on the site design, comic set up, artistic skills, ...

It seems to me that you have a bunch of different ideas floating in your head and that you couldn't decide which one to go with. Actually that is exactly what it was. I never really intended to post it up as an actual webcomic. I just basically took a bunch of ideas and tossed some fun at with with...

Re: Need feedback for comic idea!

I have a little over a dozen strips that include themes such as ninjas, pirates, subs vs dubs, a few well known anime, and the general misfortune of one hapless raccoon stuck in a world of anime, fairies, giant mecha, and magical girls. Please tell me what you think or if you might be interested in...

Read the rules there.
The rules say it must be posted and have at least 20 comics up.

Need feedback for comic idea!

I hope this is the right place for this post, if not, sorry. I am new to the art/comic/internet scene and I have a comic with a furry and anime theme. I don't have it posted because I still need to learn how to work this new thing called the "internet." I have a little over a dozen strips that inclu...
