Comic Genesis Forums

I did a forum search and didn't see anything on the topic although the Pog tutorial implies that the answer is no, BUT: Is it possible to have multiple pogs for the same comic? I'm not trying to get more links on the front (not that I wouldn't mind, but that's not The Plan) but I've got several char...

Another thing to consider with .gif is that it allows for transparency, which in some cases is desirable (although I usually stick with .jpg)

Ink it before you scan. We've been having a lot better luck doing it that way than the other way around.

We (I partner with someone who's a considerably better artist than I am - I'm the writer, she's the artist) work in hybrid. She draws on slightly heavyweight paper on 8.5x11 in light pencil, inks with a pen and then we scan with the xerox at work (it emails jpgs) in 300dpi - it effectively zooms to ...
