Once you've got the hang of it, you can make better looking comics than about 75% of the ones already out there on the net.

How do I stop the characters from randomly disappearing?

Now that Linds has responded, I almost want to post it just to show my awesome Shane.

Edit: So I made a new one

It has suddenly become apparent why Jeph is the only one of us with a popular webcomic.

It is because he has been boarding so long and knows us all that he is able to portray those of the board in such a familiar and accurate way.

Oh god I really have not been boarding that long. Were those... too creepy? I think so.

Ah, shit. There's a typo in there. "Bitstips," instead of "Bitstrips." Bah.

I wonder if Harry ever saw his vanity comic.

I don't think it counts as a vanity comic if someone else makes it.

Quote from: tommydski on 20 Jul 2008, 09:03
I should do an ending for that some time.

I don't like the sound of this. It has "slasher film scenario" written all over it . . .

In my opinion originally the first thing and then, over time, the second.

Title: Re: HEY GUYS IT'S BITSTRIPS
Post by: jhocking on 08 Aug 2008, 07:52: Small technical point: it took me a bit to realize the guy on the right was talking first in each panel, since we read left to right. You probably should have switched the positions of the two characters.

Title: Re: HEY GUYS IT'S BITSTRIPS
Post by: obskewer on 08 Aug 2008, 17:00: See. In comics you always read the bubbles top/down. That takes precedence over left/right.
Title: Re: HEY GUYS IT'S BITSTRIPS
Post by: Lines on 08 Aug 2008, 17:47: The height of the bubbles doesn't always solve everything. It also has to do with bubble placement and size. Stryc's, for example, has his characters in the same position, the main on the right and the secondary on the left. But it works because his bubbles are larger and stretch over to the right side of the panel. And since they are at the top and are at the right (mostly), they are read first, as they should be. Yours, however, stay right above the characters' heads and are rather small compared to the panel. Even though the left panel is lower than the one on the right, it's still going to be read first because it is lacking the size and L-R placement necessary to be seen as "read me first." Stryc also zoomed in on his primary character to establish that he's important while every one of your panels is exactly the same. And Jens has it right. If the reader has problems reading the "correct" bubbles first, it's not a problem with the reader, it's a problem with the layout.

Sorry if that was really long, but I learned that from a comic artist.

That's only true if they are really far apart, like top of the panel and bottom of the panel. Otherwise, you want to assume people will read the text just like they would a book (left to right AND top to bottom, not one direction dominating the other.)

As long as we're discussing this, the same considerations apply to what order to read the panels. Even pros often lay things out in a confusing way sometimes, because it's tricky to get right.

A letterer is a member of a team of comic book creators responsible for drawing the comic book's text. The letterer crafts the comic's "display lettering": the story title lettering and other special captions and credits that usually appear on a story's first page. The letterer also writes the letters in the word balloons and draws in sound effects. The letterer's use of typefaces, calligraphy, letter size, and layout all contribute to the impact of the comic. Many letterers also design logos for the comic book company's various titles.

Oh, bloody hell. I should have paid more attention when I was typing up the text bubbles. Batman's dialog should read: "Gordon, if you'd just put out, we wouldn't here right now." Argh. I'll colour a new one tomorrow.
