Comic Life Guide
Ok let’s start our own comic! First choose one page template. There is a small drop down menu where you can choose your own template. Then double click the template or just drag and drop the template on the blank page. Now we can put our pictures. We can choose one from the sample pictures album or click the explorer button and search for a different directory. There is also a third button, the capture button, where we can capture a photo by using our pc camera! Ok know that we have the photos that we want, we simple drag and drop the preferred picture in the right spot! We can rotate our picture by using the two small arrows that appeared on the photo. We can also extend and give any shape we want by clicking and dragging the ends of the photo! If we want we can use also some effects on our photo by clicking the style button that appears on the toolbar. There we can easily select our preferred style and apply it on our photo! Now let’s save our project. We select file  save as , we type the name of the project and we save as comic life file. It’s time for some bubbles now!! We simply select the bubble, drag and drop on the page. We can adjust the dimension of the bubble like we did with the pictures above! Also if we click on the + icon we add a new tentacle like staff!!! On our toolbar there are buttons that can help us modify the bubble! With the style button we can change the outlook of the bubble. By clicking bigger and smaller buttons we change the dimension of the text and with the colors (yes there is a grammar spell in the software, lol) and fonts we obviously change the colour and font of the text. Also we can put text outside of bubbles by clicking the lettering button and ABCDE... button!!!! The same rules apply here with the style and dimension modification. Once you are done you can save your comic and by clicking file  export export to images you can now export your comic to a picture file! Just select the type you want, the resolution and quality that suits you. Remember that the bigger the resolution and quality the bigger the size of your file!
Just have fun with the software and be creative!! If you have any questions you can click the help button or just send me an email at stauroska@hotmail.com
