Heh heh... well, here it is...

Um I have no idea what I'm doing with manga studio. It's obviously not designed for web publishing. Anyone have more of a clue than I do?

The screen tones looked great on Manga Studio, but the file dimensions were totally different than what I've been using, so when I tried to convert it to a normal web size, the screen tones got all screwy. This only looks okay because I found a zoom on photoshop and did the "print screen" dealio. hahaha.

Hmm. I may go back to photoshop. I might give it another few tries, really I just need to learn. But I'm frustrated.

Okay enough ranting. Despite all the setbacks, i'm still happy with this page. It's a lot of first tries for me:

1st car interior
1st try of real screen tones
1st try of manga studio

yay *.* *shoots self in head*

no no no I wont' do that *.*

... so please I welcome all critique -- any suggestions on how to get screen tones to work properly would be most welcome!!!!

Aida, or "Bird" is a boy who is kept in a cage because of his pretty wings by a master who likes silk and gold and rich things. It's Bird's 18th birthday, and master decides to let him go free. But Bird has hardly ever even seen the outside world...

D : I hate moiree patterns as well (when tones go all screwy). I dunno... try reducing the page size before you actually put tones on it? : X I do that for photoshop... never used manga studio so I wouldn't know what does and doesn't work. Don't take my advice as solid fact! I don't want you accidentally messing up because I gave ya unhelpful advice.

reducing the page size would solve the web problem, but i also want publication quality images which means 600 dpi... ergh XD

It's okay, I think my solution for now may just be to do this print screen thing and suffer a tad bit of quality loss in online screens. I can bear it, I think : p

Hehe and your advice was helpful ^_^ Don't worry, it won't make me screw up, I promise,

Ah! No shooting yourself. It's brilliant! I wish I knew how to work said program/thing, but alas, I do not.

Photoshop eludes me, and sometimes Paint gives me issues.

But on the interior? Gorgeous! I have issues with cars...they're so...inorganic. They blow my mind if I try to include them...so...WELL DONE! ^_^

Hehe thank you. Paint used to be my knight in shining armor as a kid, and I still feel a soft spot for it in my heart. Tihehe. I'm glad you like the interior! It is a Mercedes benz hehehe

congrats on all your firsts! if you had trouble with anything on this page, it doesn't show. i think that the vision of the artist is more important than the program used... even if you had difficulties you seem to have made it work! good luck with the program though, hopefully your frustration will pay off when you learn to use it well.

Thank you ^___^ I still think in the future this program will prove easier than photoshop... just have to get through the gritty learning stages ^^ I hope my frustration will pay off too! Thanks for the encouragement.
