Even asking such a question is a staggeringly generous compliment. Thanks man!
Whoa. Lew Rockwell just blogged my comics. Right after, I got like 20 hits in 5 minutes.
Dude remember the little guys when your famous!
LewRockwell.com blog references are usually good for 800 ~ 1000+ visits.
Nice of him to do that. The real benefit will come when other people re-blog and re-post your link. When it goes viral.
The next, and obvious, step for this project is to make these into youtube videos. Now that would be rad.
Congratulations! [B]
Awesome dude! You deserve it!
Thanks filc, LS, Santtu, Daniel, and Arvin.
Santtu I tried to export them from Keynote (Apple’s PowerPoint), which is what I use to make them, into Flash, but without success. I will keep trying.
By the way, in order to support this project, since the system here doesn’t support embedding, I’m moving Summa Anthropica over to Blogger. (It’s new home is what is linked to by Mr. Rockwell’s post.)
The new address is anthropica.blogspot.com. I’ve started the long process of transferring my content over there. My Mises Community Blog is still up, but the new stuff will be on Blogger.
Thanks for all the support and advice!
Okay I’ve got #1 up on YouTube. How is the timing of the frame advances? Is it okay with no audio? I also made some formatting changes to #1 and added a “Further Reading” bit at the end. Feedback would be much appreciated.
These are really great!
For the video, make the frame length shorter when there is less text to read, and longer when there is more. Fade-out transitions would also give the reader a moment’s warning before the slide changes.
Thanks AJ.
I figured out how to use iMovie to adjust the frame lengths. I also added narration. Unfortunately now the text is all blurry. [:(]
Try uploading it to YouTube as a high definition video. If the text continues to be an issue, you might have to use a different font.
It’s not YouTube. It’s blurry on my computer too. It’s just that the next highest video quality available in iMovie is over 3 GB, which is too big. I need something in between.
Really? iMovie sucks for that. Do you have access to Premiere or Final Cut Pro? Or can you export the slides into a flash file?
No, I don’t have either of those. Maybe I’ll try Flash.
Might have to do with the resolution of the pics, or their quality? Something better than jpg surely. lol
Here’s Issue #2 with narration…
I finally found time to finish issue #5. (Note: read the Adam Smith part with the thickest Scottish accent you can imagine to get the full effect.)
Your link sends us to issue #4.
when the history of the libertarian renaissance is written, I will be able to say that I knew it’s petrarch.
