Poll Position: Manga Books vs Graphic Novel!

manga_banner-435x225

 

This weeks poll position I am going a different direction then norm and I would like to ask you all the following. If given a choice would you rather read a Graphic Novel, or an Manga style book ?

[polldaddy poll="6971170"]

I have read both Graphic novels and English translations of Japanese Manga and I have to say I much prefer the Graphic novel. While in general I prefer Anime over American cartoons the reverse is true for the comic book format mostly because no matter how good the story is I just can't get used to reading the panels from right to left instead of left to right.

So that is my preference tell us what you have to say on this matter below in the comments.

Character Contest #H15 “Luck of the Irish” Winner

There wasn't to many entries this week. I know I set a limit of one, but some of the regular people did not show up. As always all the entries were great. There was one that really stood out this week. It was tolkienhiste's Lady Leprechaun. A great pose, and a wonderful design. So the winner this week is tolkienhiste's Lady Leprechaun. Congrats on the great job.tolkienhiste-LadyLeprechaun_zps4ce82b40

Weekend Open Critique Day #H22

It's weekend again and time for another OCD. Not much more to say today, I'm thinking I need to come up with something to say for the Open Critique Days, but right now I have nothing. (Trust me it is very rare for me to have nothing to say. LOL)

My new rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games.

HeroMachine on your iPad, iPhone, or Android device!

If you've ever been frustrated by being unable to use HeroMachine on an iPad, iPhone, or Android device (as I have), your problems are solved! For a very small price, you can install the Photon Browser from AppsVerse onto your mobile device and enjoy any Flash-based content on the Internet, like HeroMachine.

I've been playing with it all day on my iPhone and it works great. It does cost a nominal fee (I want to say $4), but you can finally take HeroMachine (and all other Flash content) with you wherever you go.

Open Thread #H1

I am having a open thread day for today. Due to some health problems I am going to have to cut the contest and challenges down to one per week. I really hate to do this. The last few Share Days have done really good, so I am thinking about posting more of them during the week. Isia and I can set the topics up to post during the week. I want to use today for everyone to give me ideas for topics. I want to have the topic to play hand in hand with Hero Machine. This way people can design characters for the topics and share them. A good example would be yesterday's Share Day Topic about fantasy races, you could post what you believe they should look like. So let's hear your ideas.

Share Day #H10

There was a request last week for us to share our favorite Fantasy Races. Feel free to tell us your favorite and not so favorite races of fantasy people.

Open Critique Day #H21

It is time again to share your art with us.
