Regarding those older chapters, and as Anet said: "We won't be making significant changes to older chapters." I want to get to the last chapters and think: I was really bad at that time!

Create a site of my own. Well, I won't do it for the same reason i don't play wow. I have to pay! Well, that and the cartoonist look of it.
I know there are free sites but they have limited options regarding customising, so i think i'll keep posting them at the gwo and gwg.

Wow! #5 is loads better than your first 4, nice job! Loved the name at his feet bit

Thx, nemisari, pity not everybody thinks so. Perhaps you didn't noticed but episode 5 has a really bad mistake. Right at the beggining it's written episode 4!!! Oh, my... I still have to correct that.

Sorry for double post but I didn't think I should start another thread as this question will probably have the same feedback I had on the other. I've finished chapter 6 but I won't post a link to it because of Photics', or Mike's, dissaproval. I just wish you could tell me what to improve, because that's what everybody that dislikes my comics does. It's called constructive criticism...

Oh well... I'm approaching episode 9 really fast and I don't know how to contact Mathew Resendiz for permission to have gwen's lines of the Photics' arcade in my comics. If I can't I'll have to come up with something else.

Another thing... and having knowned your oppinion o my comics, I would like to ask if T A N K and P H O T I C S could appear on an episode. Yes, I know you think I only do rubbish and such but it's just an appearence. They didn't even have to talk. You wouldn't even have to be there. It would be an honour to have your permission. It's also not a question of life or death.

Another thing. I think you should have posted here if you liked the comics or not, or at least send me a PM. You could have avoided me to annoy you in-game for an answer.

Heh... WTF?!

You can post a link. I don't care about that. I don't want to officially include your comics on my website, as I don't think they're good enough. No, I don't want to appear in your comics. I have my own comic to run. Look at it from my perspective. You're on my site, trying to do what I'm doing, but not as good. Instead of ignoring you, I'm suggesting that you make your comics more professional. Get feedback from this community... and perhaps other Guild Wars fansites.

If you got like $30 to waste, you might look into using the software that I use. It's called Comic Book Creator. I use other little tricks to make it nice, but that's the general idea.

Wow Photics, thanks for the link. I've been looking all over for a comic creator/editor. XD.

My question was if I could post my comics here. You replied that I could not. Now you tell me you allow me to post a link? Sounds a little contradictory, don't you think?

Oh, well... forget I even tried to do comics, ok? All the community wins if I stop spamming my ultra awful comics!

Note: I will not answer any replyes to this post. So, if you can, you better close this thread, as it's only taking up space on your website.
(Sorry if I sounded irritated)

I think Photics took "Can I post my comics here" as you wanted him to host your comics on the main site and create a section for them like he does with the Lost in Ascalon series. I doubt he would ever restrict someone from posting a link to their fan work.

Please don't give up on your comic, I find the content to be quite amusing (which, believe it or not, is the hardest part of making a comic), you just need to find a more professional way of displaying your work. The Paint program that comes with Windows isn't a very good program to use for comics.. there are lots of free software that you could use to make your comics come to life! I would suggest using OpenOffice.org Draw (download here) or Inkscape, give them a try I'm sure you'll be impressed with how well your comics turn out

That was kind of harsh... I don't mean to offend you or anything along the lines of that, but I still think Episode 1-5 of Crystal Guard was better than the first few episodes of Lost in Ascalon...

Actually, I think it would be same in terms of quality if Alex just learned how to use Flashpaper!

No way! Lost In Ascalon #2 is still one of my favorites!

I prefer the one where T A N K gets drunk and runs around smashing things XD.
