Yes. It doesn't really make a difference what Paint you're using, unless of course you're using actual paint, which is a different matter altogether.

Hey, Paint's quite decent when you get the hang on it.
Just.. never save the finshed article as .bmp and upload them.

I see.
*Make the sprites smaller *Make 2 comics on top to bottom as well as meking the comic vertical for more punchlines and jokes to be added in * Do paint

I would advise that you set the panels vertically,so you scroll down rather than sideways.But that's a matter of opinion.

1) I don't know about you, but I don't use semi-transparent speech bubbles, niether does Breaker. But if you want to, copy the area you want to put text on. Copy/Paste it into Powerpoint, and raise the brightness up. Then Copy/Paste that back into the comic. NO. NO. NO. For MS Paint: First, type your text, with the transparency [off]. Then, use the rectangle tool (unfilled) to close in the white around the text. There you go, bona fide speech bubble in Paint. Please use appropriate font and size when using this. Don't have it filling up more than a third of your panel. Photoshop: Use the text tool to type your text. Then, add a layer underneath that of the text and add an ellipse witht he ellipse tool (make sure your selected color is white). OR, just add text. double-click the layer in the layer table (don't click the word "layer"). Check "Stroke" and set your stroke to 3 px and color to black. There you go. Thx for the advice on my comic! (What, I find it useful info!)

How? Are you aiming to make short issues of your comic - consisting of 4 or 6 panels - or are you aiming to make longer issues of comic - anything from 9 panels onwards - ?

Getting there. Half the size of the whole comic. We're not blind. Credit whoever made the Amy sprite, since it's custom (if it weren't, she'd be the Sonic CD Amy). Humor overall is still lacking. Don't rely on Sonic specific jokes (Amy likes Sonic, Knux and Sonic hate each other, any Sonic canon staples) and experiment. For example, my comic is Slapdash. The first one is cliche and beat to death. But I played off Cheesy's comment to create a genuinely funny comic. There's only two out now, but I plan on continuing it. Breaker's "lol Waffles" is another good example. For a more serious comic, Sprite Comics From Hell is a good example. Look around. There's a lot of good stuff out there.

You should also make the speaking character's mouth open.And expressions wouldn't hurt,either.Getting better,though.
