PCC transcriptions

BETH: I remember hearing that you had some of these done. Maybe you could send them to me and I could add them to Oh No Robot!

STEVE: Maybe your readers would transcribe the comics even today? Maybe?

Um, I did quite a few back in the day! I'll poke around my home computer for them.

And I could be convinced to do a few more for ol' Poppycock Circus.

Aw, that'd be really nice. Sure! Most of my vocal fans are around here. Unfortunately, most of my vocal fans also do their own comics.

But Beth, that'd be really great! I'd have to figure out a way to compensate you!

I do a comic?

Steve you should sign up for an account and put the code on your site so I can dump in Beth's transcriptions!

Most, Boorishly.

OK, Ryan! I'm on the case. At least, I'm on the case later on tonight!

There's a chance that the only copy of the transcriptions I did is on my old work computer at my old job and I ain't going back in there, guys. But, knowing me, I probably e-mailed myself a copy of the text at regular intervals.

Well, let me know Beth. Ryan, I'll dump the code in anyway, but I don't think I'll be doing any transcribing.

I'm a busy chap!

Not that people who transcribe aren't busy. They're just better at being busy than I am.

The beauty of ONR is you don't have to do any transcribin'!

I thought you did!

You can leave it all up to your readers, if you want.

Posted: Tue Dec 06, 2005 6:28 pm

I signed up. I'll get the code onto my site at some point!

I'd help out transcribin' a little!

It's like re-living the magic.

Hey Ryan, how do I put the thing on the thing.

STEP ONE
sign up

STEP TWO
click on the 'get transcription code' link at the top of the page

STEP THREE
copy the transcription code, about 4 lines of Javascript, from the page, to your "clipboard".

STEP FOUR
open up the page that is responsible for displaying your comic to the world, and "paste" in this code where you'd like the image to appear

OPTIONAL STEP FIVE
go to your "settings" page on ohnorobot and add things like killroyandtina.com to the list of "ignored urls", so that the 'transcribe' button doesn't show up on your index page.

Tada! I'm guessing Step Four is the tricky one since I don't know how Graphic Smash does their pages, but there are other sites on GS using ONR, so it is possible. If you don't have access to the file that displays your image, I'm sure Joey can hook you up.

There is a little area for coding on GS! I will give it a shot!

My main page will probably have to wait until tonight, though.
