**HOW TO ADD A NEW COMIC**

The first thing you need to do is upload the comic. 

They go into the /Comics/ folder and the filenames follow your set format ^^ 

Anyway, yeah, after you've done that, in that folder should be a file called "template.html". 

Open that, then Save As whatever the number of the comic you are adding is. Might be 6.html or something like that. You'll be able to see there are several like it in the folder, so just make this file the next one ^^ 

 

First thing you need to look for in the file is "REFERENCE #1" This shows where you need to enter the filename of the new comic. There is a line between the two reference points that says  <img src=" "> Between the quotes, just put the filename of the latest comic. That's that sorted. 

Now, you've got to make sure the buttons at the bottom go to the right place. At the moment, because this is the latest comic, you only need to alter the left button. 

Look for "REFERENCE #2". 

When you've found that, you'll see a typical link between the two points. 

<a href=" "> 

Again, between the quotes, put the name of the previous comic file. So say, if the file you're working on is 6.html, you'd put 5.html in here. 


That's that file pretty much done. 


What you still need to do is make sure the buttons on the previous comic now link to this one. So, open the file of the previous comic (the number below the one you've just done. 

Now, on these, there are no references, but towards the bottom there'll be a line that reads:

<td width="33%" align="center"><img src="../button-nextgray.gif" border="0"></td></tr> 

What you need to alter first is you need to de-gray the button. That's simple enough, all you do is take 'gray' out of the filename, so you're left with button-next.gif. 

But, you need to make it link to the newest comic. 

So, you add an anchor link around it, like this: 


<a href="  "><img src="../button-next.gif" border="0"></a>  


Here    ^^^^   there are two quotes that are empty. In there you need to put the filename for the newest comic. This might be 6.html or 7.html or whatever number it is. (NOT the filename for the image itself, but the newest comic page). 


Now, if everything has gone alright, you should have the comic page up. But a few things still need to be altered. Save and upload those files to the right places. (the same places you opened them from) 


Open the file called LeftBar.html. It should be in the root directory. 

In this file, look for REFERENCE #3. In the quotes you need to change the number to the newest comic. 6.html for example. Whichever it is. That will make the logo on the left link to the newest comic.  

Save that. 

Now, open the file called Chapter1.html located in the Indexes folder (of course, you'd open whatever chapter we're on at the moment)

This bit's easy. You should spot there are several lines that are almost identical. Just copy and paste one of the lines. pasting it below all the others but increment the numbers by one, so it follows the pattern. 

Save that and upload. 

That should be it... New comic online. =P
