Quick question...
Has anyone ever posted a full spread onto Tapastic? If so, how'd you manage that? Did you have to break down the spread into two pages, into panels?
I posted a spread back in Chapter 1 of Time Gate. I lazied out of it, plus it was a horizontal spread across both pages, so you can find it shrunken down to Talastic's sizes. Kinda sucks but whatevs.

Yeah, same here. I just put it in at 940 pix across. It looks like a large panel instead of an awesome two page spread but that's just the way it goes. It'll look great in the print version!
I break them up. Here's an example of a spread that I broke up into three vertical panels. (To see the spread on my host site, you just need to make the browser wide enough.)
Each format has its charms.
I only ever did one double-page spread, back in chapter two, and unfortunately the composition of it meant that it wasn't practical to split it across multiple panels, so I just uploaded it as it was. I have no plans to do another one any time soon because it was a real hassle to draw. I had to pencil it on A3 paper and scan it in two parts to get the inks proportional to the single pages.
I try to reformat my horizontal splash pages into vertical format. My older pages were created just for horizontal format, so there are some that I had to manipulate to make them work.Vertical:
Horizontal
Or here's a newer page where I created the splash page with both horizontal and vertical format in mind:
Vertical:
Ah yes, we had one for :EPOCH Files and we had to shrink it so it looks a bit off in size when you're scrolling down. xD
