Comic Panels Blurb

I have a mental numbering system for the sizing of comic panels. The system based on how many panels of a specific size can fit on a single page. It’s similar to sizing for paper except that mixing and matching panel sizes is possible on a single page.

It’s also pretty modular but it’s hard to explain without using illustrations. With a little effort it could make writing formats for comics super easy.

Like any rules of thumb I imagine this system becoming super easy to break once learned thoroughly.

I’d love to write more about it in detail someday, once I can make illustrations and word it more clearly.

We’ll see in posts to come.

First Page Inbound

Fahrenopolis Seal-01

Seal of the City of Fahrenopolis, Chaos.

I’m working fervently to get page 1 out as promised. I sorely underestimated how long it would take to draw a first page that’s primarily environments. Then I had to design that little gem up there at the very last minute when I did something that made another thing seem redundant.

That said, the page is all drawn and inked and all I need to do is lay down color and shading. It’ll be done in time for the 7/7 update that I promised on 6/10. I should be able to get another page up near the end of next week before pausing another short while to get some things in order. I figure the least I could do is introduce you to our intrepid hero.

It’s 7/6 so assuming the order of numbers doesn’t change, see you tomorrow!

Checkpoint!

If you’re scrolling down this blog to see the past, be forewarned that there’s little of interest beyond this point. A lot of what I posted while putting this little corner of the internet together amounts to a faux devblog that was pretty much me re-posting checklists as I tinkered with WordPress/ComicPress. If you continue down, enjoy the awkward.

To my imaginary audience that I’ve been posting to since I started the site up, I hope you enjoy what’s to come!

Till next post!

A Quick Update

It's a slide smartphone!

A Multi-Functional MAGiTech Device.

The Thumbnail is fixed. The Post Thumbnail Editor plugin wasn’t working because of Jetpack’s Photon plugin.

The Blog page was being an issue layout-wise but isn’t anymore. The code in the template file for it seems to have been the wrong one, likely due to an interaction with an earlier plugin. I just pasted over the code with the one from Frumph’s blog.php on Github.

I’ve added my Twitter feed to the sidebar and need to figure out how to get the scroll bar to show. I’m also going to manually add Social Media icons using a custom menu widget.

Other than that, the Archive, and some illustration work, I think we’re almost there as far as the site goes.

I haven’t touched my Tablet in ages and it’s starting to drive me a little batty. Expect more drawings later.

Stay Not-Batty, Folks!

Progress Report

Minor Progress for now.

Thing’s I’ve Gotten Done:

  • Enabled Avatars for update posts. I’ll most likely not be posting alone in the future and this’ll make it easier to differentiate between myself and the other poster/s. I also think it just looks more visually appealing while scrolling down the site.
  • Added some padding in the site CSS so elements don’t seem so on edge.
  • Got the Comments Section to stop displaying an “Invalid Request Signature” error. It was some kind of conflict with Jetpack’s own Comments function.
    • Edited the CSS for Comments as well as changing the look of the default submit button.

The Colors!

I’ve edited some of the colors around the site. I still need to eliminate the background behind the comic as well as the list from my previous post.
