Hope no one minds me asking this stuff here, the Wizard page
seems to be focused entirely on collecting, and prices and online
shopping, not on clarification of Contests they run.
ONE - LETTERING. Because of my less-than-legible scrawl, I do my
lettering on my computer, using Photoshop and Quark Express.
Therefore, a competed comic page for me, lettering and all, is a file.
A file that can easily be printed on a 11x17 inch piece of fine
cardstock, that is just as reproducible as the original. Is this
acceptable? Or will the lettering have to be pasted ONTO the original
artwork?
If it’s the latter, then consider my second question...
TWO - THE BOARD - The rules printed in Wizard Edge read that the
entries MUST be drawn on Standard 11x17 inch comic book art
boards. Does this mean that we MUST use that “Blue Line Pro”
garbage? That less than durable, blue line, pre-ruled, slick-as shit
ink unfriendly (can you tell I don’t like that paper)? Would sheets of
Strathmore Bristol (cut to the specified dimensions of course)
suffice? Please say yes...
These questions seem sorta anal, but I don’t want to be disqualified
over a minor detail such as “paper type”
Thanks for your time
