That's what I am looking to do: I know there was some plug in that let you do them just like that, (after you typed in the name, you selected the letters and with some app, you manipulated them to look like old-school comic book lettering...)( I remember creating them old-school titles myself) with no fancy gradations, shines or bevels, it was just the lettering, and the effect of the 3dish thing...anyone knows what the plug in is, or if anything like that can be done with either Illustrator Cs4 or Photoshop Cs4? This is an example of what I did myself: But that was years ago when I had Illustrator 10, and after a long time with no acces to the net or computers, I'm back in the swing of things, but I can't remember the name of the program or plug in that allowed you to do those imges!

But some people tell me Illustrator is the best, others say In Design is the way to go and I have even heard Photoshop works as well. What Adobe product would you recommend to use for making comic book pages?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed the fonts but the amount of color editing and customization I can do is very, very small. For example I want to take a letter have it colored purple (so far so good) and then give a border to the letter like thin line of yellow (no option that allows me to do this).
we are talking about pretty big letters here but I cant seem to be able to do this. I am trying to edit this pre existing image and trying to enter dialogue bubbles with thin colored borders.
As for the dialogue/though bubbles themselves I can seem to find any "insert shape" inside gimp, you sometimes characters are yelling or crying or just speaking normally has to be shown by the dialogue bubble but I cant seem to be able to do it.
I have used photoshop before but it is very complex and I feel like I can work with GIMP much more easier and faster but none of these basic options seem to be available. Are there addons to install so I can work easier with than making every single dialogue bubble from scratch? *shudder*
Edit: I am using both the new version and the 2.6 version... I find the new version absolutely terrible, especially when it comes to saving your work as an image file but if necessary I will work with both versions.
file for PS7 brings up things I think have nothing to do with what I want.
Real simple. I just want to make a border around a picture. How do I get started?
Btw, I'm using Win-XP.
Is there a way of applying a Text Style Preset globally to all photos in your Book? I changed my background color to near black globally and since the default font is also black, all of my captions need to change to white. I'd also like them a little larger. It seems the only way of doing this is by selecting each caption individually, then changing its preset. That's ok for a few photos, but not very appealing for 100.

I'm using photoshop (CS2) to ink/color a webcomic attempt of mine, and I'm a bit stuck for how to do the borders of the individual frames. I tried playing around with the rounded rectangle tool, but I have to be honest I dont have a CLUE what it does or how to use it.
I basically need to make a hollow rectangle with slightly rounded corners about 5-10 pixels thick.
We have Photoshop CS, and we need to make the frames - so we tried using the rectangle tool - but when we do this, we can't draw in the frames, and when we add a new layer and switch to it, the frames vanish.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been given a college assignment where I have to make a 6-8 image comic strip story, where I'm the main character, either hero or villian. Now I have a few ideas bouncing around my head, but thought I'd ask if anyone else has ever had to deal with a similar project, before I went ahead with anything.
Can anyone offer any advice as to design? Any suggestions/ideas as to the content or a storyline? All comments welcome, the teacher gave us the freedom of artistic expression and I plan to use it!
I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise. I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom. I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book. I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book. I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.

I am trying to up load a 40 page 12" x 12" photo book to Blurb from the book module in Lightroom 4.2. It renders the pages and then having rendered the cover gets stuck, about 50% to 60% through the process. None of the photographs are starred or colour coded. I have uploaded successfully from this iMac in the last few weeks.Â

View 4 Replies View RelatedI purchased Lightroom 5 and am creating a photo book through Blurb. I accidently erased 38 pages, so after I re-created them, I clicked on Create Saved Book, which put it in Collections. Now I am trying to work on the book again, and can open it, but when I go to the Library of photos, Lightroom automatically repopulates a new book with all the photos in that file and won't let me put them in the book I saved. How can I get this partially finished book so that I can use it?

View 2 Replies View Relatedis there a way to make it so everything that appears on the artboard is hidden/invisible, and have it so my vector shapes/images only appear inside rectangle/panels?
Â
As of now, if I am to create a comic using the pen tool, and some parts of the vector are outside the rectangles (panels) I made, I would either have to use the knife tool to cut off the vectors outside, or hide the vectors outside the panels with white rectangles (since my artboard is white).
I was just wondering what would be the finest way to convert a comic character (like Gaston Lagaffe or Tintin or...) into a vector for personal use?

The idea is just a poster or canvas with a cat of a famous comic series just for my office decoration.
I'm trying to create my own Star Wars comic, and of course, being the traditionalist that I am, I wanted to start it out with an opening crawl.
The problem here is that I need a way to 'tilt' the image of the block of text so that it resembles the opening crawls from the movies. I've tried a few ways, but I can't find anything that does what I want it to do. I thought about 'pinching' the top section, but the selection tool doesn't have this function and I can't find anything in the tools to create this effect.
Am I going to have to import the text into a modeling program, tilt it, and render it as a 3D object?
I have recorded an action to create a transparent image on a batch of photos. Next I ran the image processor using the File/Scripts/image processor. When running the action the error message occurs no matter how many ways I attempt to modify the action. Error: The object "Style "Shape Style"" is not currently available.
I then look in the action window to check and under the steps Make Fill Layer: Style: Shape, Style 1 appears but I can't delete it. This one error message makes it impossible for me to image process a batch of photos with a watermark on them.
I am looking for a way to change the text style used by a table style with Visual LISP.  So far I have been able to get the IAcadTableStyle object from the acad_tablestyle dictionary, but there is no property for text style.  Is this even possible?  Code and results are below.
(defun DumpTableStyles ()
(setq dict (vla-get-dictionaries (vla-get-activedocument(vlax-get-acad-object))))

(vlax-for TableStyle TableStyles

I read that it's not possible to import a style (styxml file) into the style editor through the API, there is no dedicated command.
However I'm wondering if there's a a way to have the internal name corresponding to the button as we can do for the ribbon buttons (there's a sample code which does this).
So is it possible ot get the internal name of a button inside a dialog box (style editor here) or is it really hopeless to think I can import a style with a macro ?
By the way, that would be for Inventor 2009.
There is a font and table style called "Legend" that is automatically generating and can not be purged.
I have looked through all the start up files, all the lisp files and can't find anything that would be creating them!
They appear in any file I open, new or old and even if I open a template file.
I have attached a file that should be empty but you will (or should) see both a font and table style called "Legend".

If I manually change it to a child style and then check the values, they are the same as what I'm trying to set them to. If you use a "parent" style then these both work. Am I doing something wrong or this another limitation?
