    Hello, TFW! I've been bumping around TFW (especially the funnies section) for quite some time now. I've been planning to get something productive done for awhile, but this is the first chance I've had to do anything, because I just got a camera a few days ago. Well, here's the very first entry in my new photocomic: Transformers: the Secret Chronicles!

    Actually, scratch that. I have no idea how to post photos on here.
    HELP!!!!!

    Well first of all you have to upload your pictures onto a website like Photobucket or Imageshack. Once you've done that, go to post the pics, and look at the toolbar above the typing area for a small picture that looks like a mountain with a sun. You'll get a small pop up where you just paste each image link one at a time until you've copied and pasted them all. Then hit the 'Submit Reply' button and you should be all set. :)

    SAGE'S POSTING COMICS TUTORIAL WITH PICTURES!!

    First, we go into Photobucket. I'm going to assume you've uploaded your photos.

    [​IMG]

    We then move over to the image we want, you can see a little bar below it with some logos.

    [​IMG]

    Now, copy the text that says "IMG code"

    [​IMG]

    Then, go to the "Reply to thread" window.

    [​IMG]

    Post your code, add some words, add more images if you need to, and you're ready to go!

    You have your photobucket set to private, I think that you have to make it public in order to post pictures. If you don't want people to see what's in your photobucket account, then make a new one just to use for posting images.

    What kind of editing software do you have? (if you mean ya dunno how to make 'em smaller) Even if you have MS paint, all you do is go to drop down menu "Image">Resize/Skew>Enter percent change to vertical, and horizontal (keep them in proportion.As in, 50% vertical+50% Horizontal=Original picture, but half original size.) And, save. But, if your using, GIMP, or Photo shop, then I don't know how you'd resize the images. But, if you mean ya don't know how to copy>paste the [​IMG] Than you're kiddding, right?

    Hey, hey! Photobucket, eh? Just roll over "Edit images" Then, drop down menu, and click "Re-size"...Select image....click "Use percentages" box, and resize! Simple as that.

    Hey, dude, are you using the "insert image" option? If so, it's not neccessary, just post the links directly from the pics.

    If you're STILL having issues, just PM me the link to your photobucket and I'll do it for you.

    EDIT: Nevermind, I've gotten into your Photobucket and have access to the first comic. If you want me to, I'll go ahead and post it...once I figure out the cronological sequence of them (I find it easier to post individual comic pannels in numerical sequence on my Photobucket, makes finding images easier for me) You suck, BTW, since you got Safeguard and didn't tell me!

    Uh...I DID tell you. You just forgot (an amusing reversal of the norm). Anyway, thanks a bunch, dude. I can tell you which one goes where, just give me a little time. can't do all this the last morning of exams, now can I?

    Hmmm. True, although I THINK I've actually figured out how it goes. Mostly. It will take me a few minutes, but I know what the number squence is.

    Okay, here goes:

    *note: If it seems I frogot the third pannel, it's because your pannel numbering jumps from .002 to .004, no .003. You also double-uploaded pannel 13, BTW*


    And now I shall comment on your first update:

    At long last, the offshoot sister TFW funny to my Unseen Stories is born! Overall, I feel that you pulled off the zooming into the room bit very well, but try and keep your hands a bit more steady, the pictures of some of your shelves seem a bit fuzzy.

    Hmm, Secret Chronicles...a very good intro. So is this an episodic series as X-Brawn's narration suggests, or is there an ongoing theme?

    Looking forward to more!
