Ask HN: Help a webcomics player developer by having a comic strip made for you..

26 points by poub 16 years ago | 3 comments

Hello,

As well as trying ot be a webcomics author, I am currently developing an innovative web application and a file format for an opensource player for web comics (BD or bandes dessinées in French).

In order to go forward I need 49 more participants who would like to have a free custom webcomics on their blog to illustrate one of their post.

The reason why I need you is because I need to build those comic strips from scratch.

I could do it with my own stories but that would not prove anything. What I need is pages that already have been published and already have an “internet history".

I could pick up the pages by myself and if nobody shows up that what I will probably do.

But I thought I could first test the water and offer a nice free comic strip to people who might want it. After all, christmas is not very far :-)

I will publish more specs about this web comics player and the way I envision the future of webcomics online soon. But it’s a bit too early in the process for me to do it right now.

The full instructions are on this page:

Please have a look. I welcome any feedback.

Thanks for reading
