I did not use version 6...but it is at version 12 now. I would assume it has improved. There are several selections as well as several tracing modes that help get what is needed. Also, images can be traced in different ways in different regions. --edit-- If you have a major vector editor, you can im...

Intresting, but remember, this is KeenSpace in 30 seconds. They have to go fast (a la the final credits of Babylon 5.) However, building in a "slow down!" facility in it may hook folks in more. Also, the GIF will need to be under 60K also, so I'll have to work on that. A slow-down button can be imp...

The vector-tracing process I use is: 1) Use CorelTRACE on original image. So, yes, it is pretty fast and easy. A tablet is not needed. The difficulty is getting a good original image with clear lines. CorelTRACE can also trace color images, but too many colors will result in large vector files. RadP...

I write stories of various sorts, but I am still not interested in history for some reason. Some of it is entertaining, but most of it is mindless. That said, learning history is gaining experience ("insight.") Although I would rather model a story after drunk ants in a picnic than on a previous hap...

Ah, nice pic. I will see what I can do. Actually, it isn't really vectorizing the screentones. That would be a little harder...I think. I'm just going to vectorize the inked lines and do some simple coloring...or something. Anyway, I now run off.

Yes. My point is, unless you are going through the Keenspace comics alphabetically, I do not see the difficulty in finding good comics.

Java tags work like this: <applet [all the applet info goes here]>[HTML to display if viewer does not have a Java plugin]</applet> Flash is placed in HTML with <object> or <embed> tags, or both to support most browsers. I am thinking it is possible that they may work in an applet tag-like fashion, w...

Related to the screentones on your comic...do you ink the pages before applying the screentones? And if so, could I get an image of one of your pages at that stage, after it has been inked? http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v259/tocca/abcd1.png http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v259/tocca/abcd2....

I do not see what kind of browsing people do in looking for comics, but I think just going by word-of-mouth is good enough. Actively searching for good webcomics will of course result in a lot of crappy comics being found. This is why it is called "searching" and not "metal-digging after my metal-de...

I was like that a long time ago. I was not interested in music. Then, a friend of mine played Weird Al's "The Night Santa Went Crazy." That may explain part of my goofy personality. Now I listen to any good music. I do not know much music history because I don't care about it. Reading about how The ...

I don't. I would, but some stuff just would not work without Flash and it would be way too time-consuming to create two versions.

I agree. Music makes sense with the site of a music artist, but in most other places it is annoying. I would not worry about using JPG's as long as they are small. And for your comics, as I said before, you need to figure out a way to load them on demand, otherwise every comic in your archive will h...

Re: >>

The first intentionally recorded feedback was in "I Feel Fine" by the Beatles, in 1964. First 'real' use of feedback was the guitar solo in "My Generation" by the Who, a few months after that. That's funny. I have no idea what you are talking about. Dates? Also, when did Hendrix first come around? ...

A lot of sites are done with Flash. http://www.eminem.com As for a comic site, I am no expert, but I think you should figure out how to make the comics load only when the user wants them to. I think the default is to load everything in the Flash file at once. I already thought of a way to do it, and...

Hendrix was probably the first one to use the feedback as part of the instrument. Or at least, the first one to use it well.

Here are two examples of simple URL thingying that can be done with Flash. Clicking on the pink Keenspace area directs the browser to http://www.keenspace.com . Clicking anywhere else on the images will direct the browser to the respective comic's site. http://chu.keenspace.com/public_folder/Movie1....
