some stuff about motion
yahweh on Dec. 30, 2010
Comics aren't video games, so motion needs to be shown a bit differently since systems have technical limits and what you can do in photoshop/gimp/paint.net doesn't.
@necrolichmon
Just be sure it isn't too much. If you still cram too much into a panel and barley have any gutter space then the comic's just a visual assault on the eyes. Doing it proportionally though can create the problem I was talking about in the last page. Have to find a good width that makes it an easy read.
@Snowninja
I could take a look at your comic. I'll pq you what I think.
@soonmme
Doing Scott McCloud's (in)famous “infinite canvas” comics on a site that has a file size limit is stupid. Unless you're talking about where there's no panels and it's just sprites floating around or something, which is likely even stupider. The readers' eyes are going to be everyone on the page at once.
@xVegitox
Cool.
@Nintendude
Finally saw your mustache'd parody/homage/whatever comic. Inspires me to talk about surrealism, though there's not really any examples to pull anything from.
@KeigoKanemura
Thanks for reading.
@XM0stLyGhOstLyX
Please be gentle.

@yahweh2 It's called constructive criticism, I bet you don't even know what that means.

@Princess Eevee9 Damned if I do, damned if I don't eh? Your wording seems to imply that this whole thing is a vendetta against the Pokemon franchise (as in, not the comics, though motherfuker has already posted the quote why I'm talking more about them right now). Which is a very weird misunderstanding and is the result of two, wait, no one thing: -You just skimmed over everything I've said in this comic and jumped to a conclusion. I would have to be retarded if this was a vendetta against the pokemon franchise and all I talked about were the fan comics and not you know, the actual games. Thanks for spawning a hilarious injoke for this comic though. --------------- Anyway, next page up soon, hopefully it will answer some questions that have been asked on this page.

Don't let this motherfuker bring you down, Eevee. (GEDDIT?????)

@Princess_Eevee9 Yep. Sounds like a case of butthurt. Get lost, kid. Why don't you actually read the tutorials instead of being an ignorant fucktard? Yahweh is merely posting tutorials on how to do a better sprite comic. (while blunt, he's really right about his points) And since you don't read, I think I should point you to his author commentary from the previous page. But since you are too butthurt to even read at all, I'll just copy paste what he wrote: "I'm just focusing on Pokemon comics right now because they seem to be the biggest fad of sprite comics right now on DD, so there's a lot more active comics to pull from. Eventually I will attempt to get to other comics, but they're not as pressing (at the moment)." Too bad you probably won't read this and continue being an ignorant shit you are. lol

COntinuing on with what I commented about what 15mins ago I believe that you just made this whole thing to make fun of Pokemon and just found an Ingenious way of working in your hate for Pokemon but teaching us why are comics are f'ed up but how to "fix" them all in all why don't you pick another video game sprite comic like a Sonic one and critic how bad the recolors are or something! If you think I'm wrong PROVE IT and choose another game to poke fun at
motherfuker at 3:15PM, Jan. 3, 2011
@Princess_Eevee Shut the fuck up if you're not going to tell us why this is biased and lacking. Because to me, you sound like you're one of those butthurt cunts (which is pretty likely anyways) that needs to pull their head out of their asses because they feel the need to defend their shit awful comics and think it's perfect in every way.

Princess Eevee, I find your comment to be lacking and biased. Yahweh actually gives excellent explanations as to why sprite comics in general tend to fail on Drunk Duck. Just because you are hurt due to your lack of "shooping" and drawing skills gives you no reason to take it out on Yahweh, who is attempting to help the spriting community in this blunt but honest guide. TL;DR: Less qq more pew pew. Yahweh, keep it up. I am looking forward to more from you.

I find your description lacking and biased
charliemew2 at 6:32PM, Jan. 2, 2011
Well I see ur point. But I think it's either the void or standing still, and that just looks stupid...
king101 at 4:20PM, Jan. 2, 2011
you use my comic as an example of no action but you don't say how I could have fix it. Why not give an example and say how I or anyone could fix it? Good job otherwise.

THAT PIXEL PLUMBERS COMIC LOOKS SO GOOD I WONDER WHO MAKES IT.
