Revamped the website, too, since I don't give two monkey butts about Hellsing anymore. Thanks again to anyone that's interested!

New site is up and running and the new comic is ready for reading! Thanks everyone that's been showing interest! XD

I can't stand it when people take cosplay photographs and either manipulate the images or make subtle changes...AND THEN DON'T FREAKING SAY THEY USED A PHOTO.

Hey guys, guess what, SOMEONE WILL EVENTUALLY FIND OUT. In this case, someone had taken Lillyxandra's Odin Sphere photographs and used one in a watercolor filter, tweeked the faces and then called it an original work of art. There were AT LEAST 16 pages of compliments on the thing, none of which had any idea the image was a complete rip-off. I wouldn't be surprised if most of this artist's other work were ripped from photographs too...

Gah...it's infuriating. GIVE CREDIT, YOU ASSHOLES.

If anyone reading this has a significantly useful knowledge-base for how to import/export files to/from Manga Studio, as well as a recommendation for what page template to use and at what DPI, please let me know. I'd really like to make use of this program but I'm having a Hell of a time with it.

I'm basically trying to take hand-drawn scans (JPGs) into Manga Studio so I can ink them there (the pen nibs make me really happy.) But...the DPI settings seem to mean different things for MS than they do in PS, which is what I'm used to. I'll have something at, for example, 600dpi in MS and it'll be all pixelated like I was drawing at 72dpi in PS, but my computer goes into cardiac arrest when I try to export a 1200dpi MS file to be saved as a file for use in PS.

I THINK I know why this is, but I don't know how to solve the problem. My best guess is that my initial hand-drawn pictures look pixelated because they're being blown up to huge sizes dpi-wise, even though the image size itself is still only 8 1/2 x 11. The pen lines I draw on a seperate layer look fine.

Another thing I'm worried about is how the print-quality will be. if the image is letter-sized but the DPI is massive, I think my home printer will die on it. If I try to shrink the DPI to, say, 72, then the letter-sized page will get really horribly pixelated, but if I DRAW at 72 then it'll look bad, too. I want to be able to publish what I'm doing later and I need to know how to resize images without compromising quality.
