Miscellaneous How do I start becoming a Editor and a Typesetter

[Lyfe004]

Hey My MH names Lyfe004

And I was wondering how do u start off as an editor and typesetter for mangas... Although I have thought about it and came up with my own way to edit and typeset but it seems very amatuer-ish. So is there any programs that I need to start off.

I'm a total noob at this and I can't even translate. (sorry -_-) But I'm willing to take time and help out in the mangahelpers community. There's no specific manga that I would like to work on. So I might dabble around. Any comments is much appreciated.

best way to get the technics right is here on MH to look into the tutorial section of the MH Academy:
http://mangahelpers.com/forum/index.php?board=23.0

the academy also has cleaning/editing challenges where one can participate and get tips and hints from cleaners that are into it for some time already.

and welcome to MH


ps. photoshop is the program of choice for editing manga, although gimp isn't too bad either... the tutorials work with photoshop for most of the time.
