What's on your bookshelf that the Internet Archive doesn't have? There's an app for that. Scan a book's barcode or ISBN to see whether the Internet Archive needs it for preservation and digitization. Scan your shelves. Save a book. help.archive.org/help/donate-... 🧵

Four "Tools You Can Use" Upload campaign tiles arranged in a 2x2 grid. Top left, a cream and yellow tile with a folder icon reading "Upload" and "Contribute digital materials that you have the right to share." Top right, a cream tile with bold black text: "Upload digital materials to help preserve and share knowledge with people around the world." Bottom left, a cream tile with a screenshot of the Internet Archive's Upload files page, with the "UPLOAD" nav link and "Choose files to upload" button circled in red. Bottom right, a cream tile with bold black text, "Contribute digital materials that you have the right to share," and a small multicolor line-art icon of the Internet Archive's columned building.

Interesting review... It would be hard for me to drop using an iPad for this kind of thing but it's more possible now then it was even a few years ago.

Sweet shop looks cool for buying digital comics buying (no AI allowed!) tho it's app only for now Anyone using the app: Can you set DRM-free as a search factor? It's NOT for small indie creators SELLING (ie. you can't just go make an account and put ur stuff up) For that try itch or kofi

Tried to color a page with Affinity today... I'm not sure if it's clunky or I'm so used to Photoshop it feels that way. It's probably a mix of both. I'm curious what people are coloring comics with if not Photoshop.

I think it's safe to assume that whenever a corporation updates it's user agreement via email it's probably not good for the consumer. We really need some regulation of big biz.

Adobe is trying to force AI down my throat and I would be happy if when I merge a few layers it keeps the layer name that I NAMED instead of whatever random one it seams to choose. #photoshop

I just want mandatory AI labels on anything posted online... images, text, music. Then I can easily block those "creators."

@ end of the night I turn off the Wi-Fi on devices in a vain attempt to protect my data from when our robot overloads take over... Instead I should print every layer of every file to recreate them when humans reinvent technology after the dark age. They will be super impressed with my layer names.

sometimes when coloring you color hands with gloves (because they are drawn as gloves) then a page later they have finger nails... the script doesn't help.. what do you do?
