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.

 Re:can I make word balloons transparent? - 2008/02/28 19:53 No, word balloons can't currently be transparent. When I wanted a transparent word ballon, it was because I wanted to put an image behind it and make it show through. The link below shows how to get that effect using a panel.

 Re:can I make word balloons transparent? - 2008/02/29 07:19 Thats too bad, I really hope they implement that into a future build.

I was trying to layer thought balloons with different colored frames and offset them just a little, to give it a sort of 3d effect.

Please bring transparent balloons to comic life!

 Re:can I make word balloons transparent? - 2008/05/09 04:08 I came here looking for the same thing: how to fill a word balloon with an image. My character is imagining another character doing something, so the "thought balloon" is needed to wrap up the image in my char's mind.

That's a cool workaround. Thanks! It'll do the job pretty well for me, esp. if I take the shape of the thought balloon into Photoshop and use it to clip the image before I drop it into Comic Life.
