Hey deliverer!

I am always slow on the draw because I get soo many people directing questions towards me. This is why my signature directs people to topics that can help assist them. You wont be able to upload until we check out your first submission, Please upload a few test pages to Rapidshare and post the link for us to download in this thread. Check out my signature for more help.

Thanks and Welcome to Retromags!

I have checked out your comic release there and it is pretty good, no bleed through or anything.  Just needs some slight rotation correcting here and there (did you debind it?  If so, you can usually put it in the corners of the scan bed and use the barrier to help keep it straight).

Are you interested in editing your work yourself?  Those pages have a lot of dead space that can be cut out that will reduce the file size considerably and make it look more in line with the magazine releases here.

If you are interested in doing your own editing, let me know, I can help you get set up with some programs and get you through the hurdle of figuring out what you need to use to edit your stuff.

As far as the CBZ file, you just zip it like you did (Zip's are renamed CBZ, and Rar's are renamed CBR) and then zip it again so that download manager can recognize it and put it in the correct location.

If you are going to do the editing then I can get you the information about uploading the files.

Thanks.

Get a photo editing program (I use Gimp but a lot of people feel it is too cumbersome so you may want to try something else, though for free, the pickings are pretty slim).

Post here when you have that editing software (another popular editing program here is Photoshop but that isn't cheap).

Hi thanks for your reply, I'll try gimp out.
