Beancounters - not just shilling, actual question needing tech advices
rohina:
So.
It has come to my attention that Chapter 1.2 of the Beancounter Legacy is missing from the Exchange, quite possibly because it contained the word "vagina" (and the word "gobstopper" in the same sentence). Now, Pescado has offered to host the pix here on the awesomeservar, but I have to say, I really don't like reading the story by having to read the caption and then click to see the picture, or even scrolling down through a post to look at a picture with a caption. Also, because my chapters hover around 100 pictures, the latter would be unwieldy to say the least.
Now, I am handy with a blog, and could do it that way, but the thing that holds me back is that I really do like the page flipping set up in the BBS - one picture and caption per page. So I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a webcomic plugin or similar that could do that kind of setup: with a picture and caption, and then some kind of "next" button.
Y'all know that I am often mocked as a technical goofus, but I can manage stuff like blog software, and I can access technical help, so it can have a slight level of technical difficulty.
Suggestions much appreciated. To show my gratitude, I will even move your simself in to the BeanHood. Or leave you out, by request.
Also: Chapter 2.0.

When I was looking at doing mark2 of my webcomic, I was looking at these guys with all kinds of seriousness. This was a while ago, so I can't say for certain if they've gone downhill. I will strongly recommend you stay the hell away from webcomicsnation (formerly keenspace) as it's clunky as hell & quite crappy with the support & stuff. Make sure you read up on retaining your intellectual copyright - a lot of comic hosts like to say what's yours is now actually theirs.
I realise this is probably not precisely what you are looking for, but it is a nice, FREE, option coming with a recommendation from a former webcomicer.

I'm no blogger at all, but a quick search led me to stripShow plugin for WordPress and ComicPress. http://stripshow.monkeylaw.org/
rohina:
That's heading in the right direction, but not quite right because the emphasis is on making the frames (which I do not really care about), rather than the page-turning.
J. M. Pescado:
We don't actually need a host. A faster alternative to scribbling up my own software is all that's important. If it's simple, crude, and efficient, even better.
