What's going on?

1) If you haven't tried to understand then you should
2) If you're confused at the begging then keep reading, it may get cleared up
3) If all else fails...then use this...

Spoiler:

Right now, someone has done something to anger everyone as they were disguised as shadow. So, Shadow is getting the blame and everyone is going after him. But Metal Sonic is the only one who can recognize the person disguising them self even if he's in a disguise. At the time, the real Shadow was walking around when all of a sudden Knuckles comes out of nowhere and attacks. After getting knocked around a bit, Knuckles explains why he's attacked and then tells Tails's story. He then decides to follow Shadow to prove to himself that he did it.

[ScizorZ]

I'm confused... why is he running? and I thought he disguised himself, how does Knuckles find Shadow if he's disguised. Maybe a one para summary should explain what the hell is happening...

 

[Rob-120]

Ok...I've added a thing that helps you understand what's going on a bit if you don't already.

 

[Deja Vu]

So...let me get this all figured out here.
Green Guy is the bad guy, disguised as Shadow, making everyone think Shadow is the bad guy.
Metal Mario sees through the green guy's shadow disguise...
Everybody wants to kill Shadow because they think he did all the bad stuff, but it was really the green guy?

It was a kind of a roundabout way of describing it, but I'm right, right?

 

[Rob-120]

Yeah...pretty much. But this isn't Mario...so where did you see Metal Mario :laugh: ?

 

[Deja Vu]

Lol, I meant Sonic.

Sidetracked with SSB much >.>.

 

[[NovaPirate]]

Errm. My main problem is with the low quality caused by using .GIFs, and the badly done "zoom-ins."
I suggest you switch over to .PNGs, find a better way to zoom in, and make the plot a lot clearer. It's okay, but you shouldn't need to explain it with a paragraph. Maybe visual cues can help (Making fake Shadow look different somehow when he's disguised as Shadow).

 

[Weatherman Kiyoshi]

*le sigh*

Well, this concept has been done before,
and I've never really ever liked a sonic comic ever before (since most turn out like crap-on-a-stick),

But,
NovaPirate pretty much has summed up what was needed to be said.
Way too blurry.

 

[Rob-120]

Hey, I'm willing to take suggestions if you know how I can make a better zoom up ^___^ oh and, I don't know what you mean by blurry. DO you mean in the normal parts of the strips or just on the zoom ups, because I found out that on some computers that random colors appear and the graphics aren't so good.

 

[[NovaPirate]]

The whole comic is blurry, but the "zoom-ins" are especially bad.
You used a .gif file.
The colors will be blurry on every computer.
Save as .PNG (.PwNaGe) to get rid of this blurriness and make everyone else happy.

As for your "zoom-ins", do you use paint, or some other software?

 

[Rob-120]

I use photoshop...oh and GIF isn't fuzzy on my computer. But whatever, I'll switch them to PNG I guess if its really that bad...

 

[[NovaPirate]]

That would explain the problem with close-ups.
Are you on a Mac, Windows, or Linux computer?

 

[Rob-120]

I'm on an XP! So... windows....

P.S. Changed everything to PNG, hope it's better! Because there was no difference between PNG and GIF on my computer so I can't tell...

 

[[NovaPirate]]

Because the quality was reduced by saving it as a .gif, just resaving it won't do much.
I don't know, I just recommend saving all future comics as a .PNG and not worrying about it.

By-the-by, just posting all comics as images is obnoxious, I recommend posting them as links.
