Thanks! This is very helpful for amateur editors like me! One question please, how do you master cloning? Cloning was the most difficult part during the first time I edited.
Well, I reckon you're not using CS4/5, since it's hell-a-lot easier to use the clone tool there
though when I was still using 7/CS3, when selecting a start point, I would make it 4px wide, then I would make sure the starting point is smack in the middle of the circle.. then i mosey on to where i want to clone that part, then try to align it with the background.. it sometimes takes a couple of tries though :T
And I reckon I'm not making much sense huh? :T I'll try and provide you with screenies if you want me to
Umm, could I ask a favour from you? Could you give me a list of fonts usually used in editing? For when the scene is scary, shocking, peaceful, happy, depressed and etc~ I don't tamper with different fonts when I edited my first and last doujin, it would be much appreciated if you could give me some pointers for this...
Well, I don't have a set font for each particular scene. I try to go with the font that looks the most like the original japanese font.
For the normal dialogues though, Anime Ace is usually used, at least, that much is standard, or at least for our group.
To kinda make it easier, I ask our editors to create a standard font page, that will be used throughout 1 project (because I'm lazy, I made a standard font page for all, and just tinker with it if I need to).
I've downloaded the files from the link that you've given me, now I just need to see whether I can come around to understand how to do it! For the 'hide the parts with huge fonts', the first step was using blur tool, but then how do you make the words blurry without making the background blurry too? It doesn't look like the background was blurry... As for the old fontset, when I clicked on it, my ver. of photoshop asked for font substitutions because the type of fonts that you gave as examples weren't in the database. Is there any way I could save the font type for usage in CS3? Or do I need to install your ver. of photoshop?
Hmm? I rarely-to-never use the blur tool for editing though so I'm not sure what you're talking about :T
Re fonts, what you have to do is install them. Mosey on over to your control panel, click on Fonts, then go to File > Install Font(s). No need to upgrade to CS5 for that

Captions are usually narrations. Or texts not inside speechbubbles that aren't side-comments.
