House of Hozz:Community Portal

New Idea For Community Portal

Why don't we use this area for a bulletin board to work on stuff? Just post links to all pages that need work, and why. Discussion seems to happen where ever it wants to. example:

TwinWorld needs an overhaul because much of everything has changed since we wrote it.

I'm pretty sure that everything we have written here can be referenced to separate pages.Oswald 01:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Mechanics of the Graphic Novel

Several ideas I've come up with require the juxtoposition of to (or more) events in the same page. For instance, Ziggy at the job site dealing with problems vs. Ziggy at home dealing with problems. I'll try to make sure we can do this. If anyone else wants to do something like this, go ahead and write it. We'll worry about the technical execution later.Ziggy 22:32, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Most if not all comics utilize noise words, emotional icons, and visual cues in order to communicate the non-visual or the non-still life. How do we implement these in a 3D based comic? Confusion, laughter, embarrasment, quick movement, various action noises, etc. --Hugh 02:17, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Excellent point. It would be very interesting to have no facial expressions and rely completely on emoticons. Conversely, if the facial expressions are good enough, we won't really need emoticons at all. For motion and action we may need further cues. I'm guessing some experimentation will resolve this. Any wild ideas of how to convey these non-visual sensations? Ziggy 15:05, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm especially interseted in smells. Can we come up with some visual cues for olfactory senses? Usually there is just a little squiggly for bad smells, maybe a cloud of some kind. Good smells, especially food smells, are shown as breezes flowing into the nose. Perhaps words on these "breeze lines" would convey better the smell of the place?Ziggy 19:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
