Still learning myself (and for some reason can't print out the right part of things) but to get the body (Male only option currently) go to the section of circular buttons on the side, and pick the top one, then the check option.

Guest bblackmoor Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Re: Superhero drawing tools Hey! If you were to create a "paper dolls" type program for super heroes, what would you call it? I want a zippy name, something hip and edgy, but something that also conveys the idea of the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Re: Superhero drawing tools This will be pretty cool once they get lots of choices in there. But for now it's still a fun little time waster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Re: Superhero drawing tools Do they have a name for those chalk outlines at crime scenes? If so... Ok. I decided to look around and see if there is an "official" name. I couldn't find one, but did find some info at Straight Dope. The LA Coroner in their gift shop for their towels, just says chalk outline as well. As does Sacramento's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to create an open-source "super paper dolls" program, so it behooves me to get the community involved right at the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done a few already and posted them in the other art threads. The Comic Artist program need a lot more put into it, and definitely needs more figures, but I like it.
