I'm still trying to figure out Comicpress and Wordpress for my team website... A friend of mine, Aphex, who, if things go well, will publish his graphic novel in Barnes and Nobles by April, told me that he used those programs as a base for his site. I downloaded them, but I just have to figure out how the hell I'm supposed to use 'em... Give or ( Read more... )

Comicpress/Wordpress is WAY too tricky in my opinion.

For my webcomic, I use http://comiccms.com/ and it works BEAUTIFULLY. It doesn't have quite as many widgets to use, but it makes uploading comic pages ridiculously easy and customization is much much easier than with Wordpress.

Just a thought! :)

I love the character designs! The artwork on the Avalon characters is exquisite, and the Cotton Tale characters are simple but full of life. :D

Is it? D= Well, I'm new to this whole thing, so it's probably better I don't bite anything bigger than what I can handle... Hrmm, Aphex is more experienced with this stuff to begin with...

Oh! An alternative!
The few things I want to add to the website is something that can separate Avalon and CottonTale. The "home" page that should appear will advertise our group and I wanted to also put in things like character profiles, galleries, etc... I'll most certainly use comiccms if it's easier, but can it do that stuff too? D=

Thank you!!
Things are really coming along nicely for our group, I want to say. Heheheh, I'll bet it's kind of weird, though, to have more of a cartoony story paired up with a more detailed, anime-ish story in the same website!

Well my recommendation for comiccms is to have a sort of "portal" page that links to both comics. Then install comicCMS into two subdomains or two subfolders (like yourwebsite.com/comicname or comicname.yourwebsite.com).

That way you can have a nice little webcomic hub. :)

A portal page... Well, it's worth a try D= Hrmm... There's also the issue of making the layout... I have no coding experience whatsoever, so this will also be an issue.
But that sounds like a good idea there...

Hrmm, but definitely =D I like the fact that I'm able to possibly add more comics. I'm totally tempted to urge CU into doing a Monty Python parody with Avalon!

Speaking of which, how long did it take you to make your website for Forged Fear?

Ohohohoh~ Thanks~
'Course, you're the one who takes the initiative to keep practicing and designing! That is a lot more respectable than my current state =D
