Description
A tutorial for you!!What this tutorial covers (it uses Photoshop but some of the things are totally transferable to programs like Gimp or OC, if you do a little bit of looking):
-how to clean up your comic page and make it ready for editing
-how to correctly put your font into a comic page, along with tips on what font to choose and how to do proper speech bubbles.
It's huge for just those two things, I know. But it's a lot of steps!
And my 'screengrab' program was only set to 'current screen only' which makes me sad, as some of the things I wanted used the full screen... but I only realized this after I was done, and I was NOT going back and screen-grabbing another full comic page.
Anywho, hope this is helpful to... SOMEONE.

Funny that we'd BOTH think of doing this.

Hee. :3 All the screencaps were over the course of doing one of my comic pages over winter break (you see all the examples are from like page 6 or something) which didn't take THAT much longer, so like an hour or two for screencaps... then half an hour to put it all together, maybe an hour. :3 I've had it for forever but was worried that it would be too big, so I didn't put it up on dA 'til now...
But you could just make your's into like '
