 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
I would have used WebLetterer, but I switched to Linux recently, and apparently installing fonts with it is a real pain
EDIT: Also Pencil is very wordy and I had to really cram that stuff in there

 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
Where's that Romeo and Juliet book when I need it...
Either way, I don't know. I reckon it's got to do with the computer, but I have no idea how. WebLetterer on my current computer is smoother than my other computer which is smoother than your computer, apparently.

 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
I used to use MS Paint, but since switching to Linux I've been using GIMP, which is significantly fuller-featured. I don't think it's my computer; I don't have what would be called a high-end system, but it certainly shouldn't have any problem rendering webcomic fonts. It's more likely that there's some toggle or setting that's not properly configured.

 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
Oh, I'm also on Linux (Ubuntu)! I use Inkscape (easier and can change quickly if there is a problem). Maybe that's a problem only on The GIMP.

 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
Well, that did the trick! I installed Inkscape, and it seems to do a better job of not screwing up the fonts than GIMP did, so I'll be using that from now on. I reuploaded the new and improved version of that strip. Thanks!

 Oh, the fun...
This opens up a world of possibilities. Not only could we translate into Ye Old English, we could also make Peanut and Grape Comerade Peanut and Comerade Grape, and put them in Soviet Russia. We could do it in lolspeak. Oh, the places you can go.

 Re: Ye Olde English Translation
So, upon trying to translate a few comics, I realize I'm very much incompetent at many things. This is just making the list longer. :I Not to say I won't be trying, just saying when I do, do keep in mind I know it'll be horrible and keep from murdering me because of home much I suck :v
