RE: By Popular Demand: A Comic! About Me!!
That title wouldn't really be "to get people's attention", it would be click-bait because that title literally had nothing to do with the comic itself.
Again, if... I was really concerned with presentation, I wouldn't be making doodles. I'd be doing something a bit more like this.
But yeah, that's kinda always been the appeal of doodle-comics, especially like on Tumblr, where the whole site is based around scrolling, having it laid out like that is pretty common there.
Not to mention, most of what I know about comics I learned from reading a lot of manga, and when they have the simple comic strips like these, they're always vertical, not horizontal.
They're also usually 4 panels tho LMAO
They're called 4-komas
Honestly, the biggest problem with Steemit is that people on here... really like to talk about Steemit. I've made a handful of posts recently about Steemit just cuz it was relevant to what I was thinking about at the time, but if people are expecting a lot of Steemit-related content from me, they're gonna have a bad time lol.
I'm really glad to hear that, actually - When I started this thread, my feed was full of borning crytpo garbage so this was my way of trying to improve that. It hasn't even been a week and already I have a lot less steemit fanbois and much more interesting stuff to read (artists also tend to be interesting writers as well)
Don't read too much into my comments about the presentation and the layout. I just wanted to encourage and inspire you to post more. (hopefully I've done that at least a little)
I actually haven't read a lot of manga at all (although I loved Elfin Lied) and I was thinking more about the webcomics I read, like sinfest and penny arcade.
I'm a fan no matter what layout and style you choose, as long as you keep posting I'm happy...
flails YES, THE BORING CRYPTO STUFF, OMG
I wandered over to Twitter and forgot to post for a while... So I started following a couple Steemit Twitters so I'd have reminders, and was like THE TECHNOBABBLE. WHY THE TECHNOBABBLE.
And quickly unfollowed them and got kinda depressed tbh u_u)
You did encourage me, though! :D I'm kind of a wishy-washy person tho, so sometimes I have a hard time sticking to things u_u)
And then I get depressed cuz I feel like a failure oeL
I'm still trying to figure out what I'm even doing with myself?? But I'll figure it out LOL
That's funny lol, I haven't read a lot of webcomics XD My bro talks about them sometimes, tho! Especially Housepets and
Uh
What's it called
It's basically like a female spiderman... sorta... and it's a really weird story?
Idk, I'll ask him in the morning and let you know LOL
; w ;) I was actually going on hiatus b/c I feel weird about the fact that I've started posting fanart.
But now I feel bad for leaving, ugh. Especially cuz I finally got somebody to join and stick around and I'm like I GOTTA HELP THE NEWBIE, FLSJLFJSLJLFSFL
Tho if I can get myself to focus on it, I think I'd like to post about this [cute little raccoon guy] I made recently!
I haven't forgotten about you but I've been really busy on this new project. It's a video series for steem - "boring crypto stuff" haha but with some motion graphics by me. We just posted the intro video:
https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@starkerz/decentralize-in-5-introduction-spreading-blockchain-tech-to-newbys
Ooh! Well I like the graphics, though the info is all stuff I p much already knew about XD
But omigosh SERIOUSLY APPRECIATE THE 5 MINUTE VIDEO. Some people like to make their videos so LOOOONG and I just CAN NOT SIT THROUGH IT. Either because my internet just won't load it or because I just. No interest. Ugh XD;
Your video is a nice TL;DW version for newbies, tho! XDD
I wish ya luck on your new series! :D
[BUT YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE MADE IT A POWERED-UP POST, AAAH;;;;]
Thanks for the feedback (yeah it's meant for people that aren't even on steem yet). Have you seen all the changes with the voting system? Power to the artists!
I wrote a blog about all this new voting power we have. I hope people don't just keep voting for boring crap.
