Cranium Comics has recently launched their first four color comic, Brawn #1.
"I used Comic Life on my Mac exclusively to lay out the storyboards, then later when I created and colored all 24 pages of the issue," recounted Anthony Rezendes, the owner of Cranium Comics and co-creator of Brawn.
The comic 'Brawn' focuses on a dockworker named Sam Ross who was reborn as the hero "Brawn" after he was nearly killed in a drunk driving accident.
"Being an illustrator, it saved me quite a bit of time from having to lay all the text bubbles out manually. It made the process of actually creating the comic that much more enjoyable," Mr. Rezendes added.
We think this comic is great! So check out 'Brawn' on the Cranium Comics site or read the first 5 pages on our Comic Life gallery.
Export/save as jpeg? - 2008/01/19 00:51I'd like Doozla to have the ability to easily save/export a drawing as a jpeg, so it can be used in other programs. Kids at my school would love Doozla, but we'd like to be able to put their drawings into a word processor or something easily, so they can illustrate their stories/poems etc.
Re:Export/save as jpeg? - 2008/01/19 16:58A workaround for the moment could be to choose to "Print" and then, instead of actually printing, click Preview. Once you've got it open in Preview, you can export it as .jpg, .png or any of the other formats.
Re:Export/save as jpeg? - 2008/01/23 03:51I'd vote for that feature too. My daughter really wants to be able to email pictures she's composed to her friends.
By opening them as .skitch files, you have access to all the export abilities of Skitch. PLUS, you'll be able to store the files in the Skitch app, ready to export into other applications at a moment's notice.
Re:Export/save as jpeg? - 2008/06/27 23:24You didn't mention that you have to CROP in preview before saving. A little omission - no big deal. Skitch SHOULD export to jpeg on its own though, if not simply use jpeg by default, IMHO.
so the feature would be nice to have.
