Comic Life Magiq 1.0.2.1 update released
A free update for Comic Life Magiq is available for all users.

Identical to 1.0.2c in all but version number, which has been changed to ensure 1.0.2 users are made aware of the 1.0.2c update via the menu: Comic Life Magiq > Check for Updates...

This 1.0.2.1 update is recommended for all 1.0.2 users and fixes a serious saving issue introduced in 1.0.2 that caused images to be left out of the document.

If you're already running 1.0.2c (v10939) you can "Skip This Version".

Head to the plasq downloads page to get the 1.0.2.1 update or update from within Comic Life Magiq.

King Crimson Comics!
Comic Life is great for sharing those funny little moments from school, in the office, or while on worldwide progressive-rock-legends tours.

Robert Fripp and Tony Levin have been sharing the day-to-day stories of touring within one of the most influential prog rock bands - on King Crimson’s 40th Anniversary Tour.

Enjoy the King Crimson Comics here and here.

non-comic text for web link - 2008/02/11 23:44 I'm looking to make a 'direct link' about 1 inch x 1 inch with text over top. I'll html code the image/text so that the code can be pasted into another site (linking back to mine for image). When clicked it will open back to my site.

Is it possible to use plain ole regular text in Comic Life to apply text over a small image then move it out into my site? All I can find is comic text and any attempt I make to pick something like Georgia, meets with comic text result...

And can you work with such a small image?

Sure can. Make sure you have 1.4.1 - download from here: http://plasq.com/downloads/

First go to Comic Life > Preferences, and change it so the "Page Size Units" is in Inches. Then go to File > Page Format... and make a 1 by 1 page size.

Then Drop in Panel, and caption that you want -- then once you have the caption reselected you can go to Details tab > and click Choose down the button. Now you can change the font to what you want.

Then you can export out your 1 x 1 inch image ... ready for your website.

Here is one I created in less than a minute :
