Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

When I asked about the Manga/Pages categories, I was told it was for fan comics (doujinshi). Like a strip would be a gag comic and a page is a regular panneled comic.

I've never gotten ImageShack to work.

Make sure you go to imageshack.us not imageshack.com
You shouldn't have any problem with the .us one

Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

I've done that one and it still won't work for me. I've used IE, Firefox, and YahooDSL browsers on it and none of them got it to show the image after uploading.

Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

um, maybe you aren't doing it right?

i have pretty crappy connection right now but it always works for me. tinypic is another good site, it's pretty reliable and it's usually faster than imageshack. i personally find photobucket too busy looking and cluttered.

make sure your file is small enough to be uploaded or imageshack takes FOREVER trying to upload it. then click on the very very bottom link of all the links listed, it's "direct link to image" and then you can use one of the img html tags (if you want it to be viewed fullsize). or click on one of the "hotlink for forums" and you can just copy and paste it into your msg. they already have all the tags for the hotlink thumbnail so don't worry about adding any.

if that doesn't work...then i don't know. ^^

I think I'll just stick with LJ. Also there I can categorize them so I know which ones are being shown and which aren't.

Ikakku says.....BANKAI

Nice soft shading on Ikkaku's muscle tone. Looks like he's been doing some extra tanning. Although his bankai is supposed to have focus, I might suggest some lighter highlights so that he's not completely drowned out, especially with as dark a tone as you gave him. Otherwise, nicely done imo.

First timer. Hopefully I'll get better as the weeks come. Bleach Chapter 262 page 19. Is it really Kaien?

Yes, that's really Kaien. I like the change you bring to this with the traditional medium rather than digital.

Thanks for the compliment and suggestion atm
Ikakku doesn't get coloured that much so let him be the focus of the pic

The competition is very tough in the amateur contest...too many great entries even by talented first timer.

I really like harrmd's work, he pics the right colours/shades and uses the blurr effect so well, the final result is always a page that is just pleasant to look at

Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

After checking out the final entries in the voting process I noticed that my picture is actually somedbody else's picture. Is there a mix up?

Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

lol I feel so silly for pulling a last-minute entry like I did. >_>;

For anyone that doesn't know, or at least to my knowledge, Deviantart is deleting manga scans/colored. It says that its copyright infringement. so, well someone should know...

It's been doing that, thing is it doesn't catch MOST of it. DA's horrible at enforcing its own rules sometimes. I haven't been caught yet, at least. If they do catch me, I'll just repost on LJ.

Re: All-Purpose Contest Discussion Thread!

Your entry looks so awesome Roko, I'm going to vote for you!!

Re: Manga Coloring of the Week #8-9 (Advanced)

NIce Entry hyro. It's an odd coloring and that's why I like it. It took me awhile to realize who it was.

Post moved. Please keep all discussions about entries in this thread and not in the submission threads. Thanks. ~ WL
