- In my country, we work with centimeters, not with inches. I have absolutely no knowledge of inches, so I wanted to ask you if you could tell me the sizes in centimeters?

Answers
- Why don't you post the characters' sexual orientations on the cast page?
All characters are assumed heterosexual (liking the opposite gender) unless specifically designed by the creator to be otherwise. If the original creator does not make a point of obviously encouraging their character with members of the same gender, DO NOT place them into that sort of situation. We do no wish to offend anyone.
- Are pencil sketched pages acceptable?
Preferably not, pages should be at least inked. Only produce artwork of a degree which you would want to be recognized as having drawn.
- In my country, we work with centimeters, not with inches. I have absolutely no knowledge of inches, so I wanted to ask you if you could tell me the sizes in centimeters?
5 inches = 12.7 centimeters (12.75 I guess)
8 inches = 20.32 centimeters (20.25 rounded to quarters)
The inches measurements is just to keep all of the pages a uniform size. I can always stretch and resize it a smidge on my end to the proper inch.
- Is an artist allowed to do more than one chapter?
Of course! I would recommend only working on one at a time, you may draw as many chapters as you can think up ideas for.
- Can my chapter take place with the students in a higher grade? Such as send a senior to college?
Sort of, but no. The grades/ages listed on the cast page are the current theme and will not change throughout the entire series (think about the Simpsons, how many times have those children gone on summer vacation and returned to the same grade?). The characters may celebrate a birthday since those regularly happen during schoolyears. Chapters may not take place in the future. HOWEVER, flashback chapters are permitted. So your storyline may take place in the past. It can also happen at any time during the year and does not have to follow chronologically to any chapter already produced.
