Create your own funny comic strips with photos of familes and friends

Posted on July 29, 2007 at 7:08 pm

Just about everyone has read the comic strip section in their newspaper at least once and it would be very cool to create your own comic strips just for fun! PikiStrips is a fun web site where you can take your own photos and create personalized comic strips, which you can then share with friends. You can also take your new comic and post it to your MySpace profile.

Once you create an account, you go through four steps to create you own comic strip. Step 1 is to choose your layout from about 17 different styles.

On Step 2, you can configure the look of your comic by changing the border width, border color, background color, and the size of the comic.

Step 3 is the fun step. Here you click on the first cell to edit, upload the photo, position it using the arrow keys, and then add speech bubbles or you can add fun items such as beards, chest hair, ears, glasses etc, from the clipart menu on the right.

If you don’t have a photo, you can also click on the Search or Gallery tabs and find photos off the Internet to use in your comic strip. Once you’re finished, you can email the comic, download it to your computer, or copy the HTML embed code and embed it on a web site, i.e. MySpace.

Here’s the top rated one on the site right now. All of your comics are saved in your profile and you can view them at anytime by clicking on My Gallery and the top right. Enjoy!
