who wants to join me and start a web comic?

Off TopicHere’s what I have in mind
1- It would be based mostly on marvel universe;
2- Team size should be about 5 members, more is ok, but much more can be confusing;
3- It would be updated once a week, each time by a different member;
4- Plot would be random, each member does what he/she wants on their post, and others have to follow from there;
5- We all tell each other what figures we have, so if one of us decides to use other chars, we must also make it so the next person doesn't have to use those if he/ she doesn't have them;
6- would be mostly done with photos of our figures, not necessarily customs, but any Photoshop effects, or even any kind illustration is acceptable, so if you not in the mood to take pictures and you are a decent illustrator, you can just illustrate, or even mix both;
7- Format would be 1000 (weight) x 800 (height) pixels, 72 dpi, RGB (I think that’s a good format for a web comic, so it all fits in an internet window without needs to scroll up or down, or sideways to view it);
8- Each creator can edit background colour, talk balloons, etc, any way they want, no templates;
9- Can be a funny story, or a serious one, depending on what each week creator wants;
10- Would be in English, well written, no mistakes or short cuts, so anyone can understand;
11- No commercial purposes, just for fun, if we start to get a lot of visits, we may place publicity banner on the bottom, but never interfering with the main site, profit would be equally divided;
12- Costs to maintain the site online would be equally divided between members.
PM me if you want to join, once we are at least 5 we will chose randomly the order of posting, once we all posted once, we do it again, so member 4 doesn’t always continues from number 3, and leaves it open for number 5, so it’s more fun, if after the projects starts someone new wants to join, he/she will be welcome, and will post after every one posted, before we chose posting order again, so he/she can be included on the new draft.

Please wait...

in order to be free of charge for the ones cotributing it will be a blog instead of a regular website, so we don't have to pay domain name and site maintenance
1.5- But any universe may enter, you can even do it a all batman thing, like the guy before you does something about spiderman, and you go like "meanwhile in gotham city", but the story mmust progress in a way storylines will collide, and eventually come to a closure, so then a new chapter may begin.
6.5- The main goal is to be done with photos we take with our figures, but that's not a must, you can use any kind of illustration you want, photos of your selfe, of other people, photos you find on the web, as long as it's all credited in the end, use anything, as long as it looks decent, I'll post examples of that.
7.5- In special cases if you feel the need, you can post more than one page, but let's try not to do that, also you can instead of sumiting an image, submit a video, stop motion, flash anymation, you name it, as long as you don't strech it to much, and you keep the same dimentions I said for a page, and try to use a story board based on the page size as guide, so if it's taking to much pages, maybe it's to long.
13- anyone can update at any time, in any format a synopse of the story so far.
14- As long as other users, allow, we can all use eachother pics, and would all try to teach and learn from eachother about how to take pictures, some photoshop or other image editing program, etc.
