    A new update is ready. However, I see that the image in Chapter 6 is not showing, due to the crappy site I'm using for them. Can I ask for someone to host that image and one other for me, so they will show up? And Mal, one that's done, will you edit Chapter 6 for me? Thank you.

    Everything that had been posted on the old board is now up to date (aside from the image). Chapter 7 will be a brand spanking all-new update, complete with an illustration!

    Yay! An update!

    Have you found someone to host it yet?
    If not, how big are the images?

    Btw, the albums section might be an option.

    You can host the pictures here if you like, either put them in your album or send them to me and I'll put them in their own folder. :)

    The first picture (the old one, that you've all seen) was supposed to be embedded in the text of Chapter 6, but is conspicuous by its absence. The new one is supposed to be embedded in the text of Chapter 7. I think there are problems linking directly to a picture in the album, aren't there? So I would have to send the images to you, Mal, and write in my submission where the picture is supposed to go. Would that work?

    Okay, just let me know where they go exactly. :)

    Okay I did number 7, hadn't realised you'd submitted it. I had to make the picture a bit smaller, it was massive, but it's still quite large.

    Just tell me where the first picture goes. :)

    Thank you! Also, on the size of the new picture, I just scanned it in exactly as I'd drawn it. The shrinkage is great - thanks for doing that for me. :)

    I've been drawing little sketches for a fairy stories website I'm making; I don't know why but they always seem to come out massive when you scan them, no matter which setting you choose. :)

    Because your scanner scans at 300 dpi or something like that, and the screen is set at 72 dpi. Quite a difference.

    Gifs and Jpg's are at 72 dpi...

    Well, that's what Photoshop is for.




    Edit: added the bit about JPG and GIF

    In case you haven't spotted it, a new update for [i:825f3d5d34]2001: A Board Odyssey[/i:825f3d5d34] is up.

    Edit to add: Thanks, Mal, you were very quick!

    Help required!

    I need someone who knows how to use Photoshop or a similar program, who would be willing to do line-inking and colouring for me. All I can manage is scanning in a pencil sketch. :-/

    Nice colouring job, Katcal!

    Now, in the name of friendly competition, I demand access to the black and white art. :)
