Anyone familiar with NPAPI here? Would it be possible to make a browser plugin that would allow you to select a canvas on a page and dump it in its current state?

Somebody teach me how to use the ebj ripper please. I managed to add it and it does start, but afterwards it just flips the pages without ripping any of them. I have firefox auto save enabled so I don't know what else to do. Is it already broken? I got the one released earlier this month.

I would give one bubble to each of the sentences in the top panel, as opposed to splitting the first in that awkward way.

Middle-left text reads really unnaturally. Dunno what you can do about that.

Nope, I could only get started today, only have chapter 2 so far.

>>158915670
Okay then, i should probably work on more chapters then. How many do you think you can get done in a week?

>>158915780
I'm going to be pretty busy these next two or three weeks, so I don't think I'll be doing more than one or two chapters per week. After that, who knows.

Do you have an email I could contact you at?

>>158913247
No, it's "my patience". That's a really common idiom. Just Google it, you'll see.

Page 8 is fine, that's obviously a rhetorical question.

"Moreso" is really something that's up to debate.

Get up as well, but I think I'll just change it to "outfit".

On 23, she's speaking awkwardly in the first place because she's flustered.

>On 25, she actually says Umi's name at the start of the sentence.
Japanese grammar and English grammar aren't the same thing. Do you put every verb at the end of the sentence because that's how they do it in Japanese?

>>158916252
Yes, I do.

>>158916252
No, but where you place a name in a sentence in inflection of its importance or mood of the statement.

>>158916396
There's a very fine line between trying to recreate the mood of a sentence in another language and just making the characters sound autistic.

>>158916117
>No, it's "my patience". That's a really common idiom.
No, it's not. Not in the way that you are using it. She is referring to her absence of patience, so it is not clear what you mean unless you modify it to "my patience, or lack thereof, ..." or something to that effect. "Impatience" is correct. Google it yourself; you will not find an example of the word being used in the way that you are using it there or any phrase resembling it. I know what I am talking about.

>Page 8 is fine, that's obviously a rhetorical question.
What? Rhetoric has absolutely nothing to do with it. As it is written now, it is a run-on sentence.

>"Moreso" is really something that's up to debate.
>your link says "moreso gained ground in the late 20th century and continues to appear despite the disapproval of usage authorities and of spell check"
By the same right, "fleek" is a legitimate word.

I really should know better by now than to try and actually talk about scanlation in these threads.

>>158917815
I like how you just took the first thing you saw on google and tried to use it to support your argument.

Okay, look. You seem to think that "patience" must by default mean "have a lot of patience". It doesn't. Patience is defined as the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset. Capacity can either be high or low. And of course, exact meaning, whether high or low, is derived through the context which it is used.

Thanks for letting me know I should just full on ignore you.

>>158915850
uhh, I'll see if I can get a throwaway email

>>158918326

No shit. It's not her capacity that is the problem. It is her absence of capacity. Prefix "im-": absence of; not. She did not have patience.

By-the-by, most (if not all) of the linked pages in your image are British. So, then, if we're allowed to use uncommon regional set phrases, then I guess there's nothing wrong with me writing "大丈夫です" as "things will be all cherry" and "傘" as "bumbershoot" in my scanlations. After all, they're not technically wrong! If you believe they are, you must simply not have a proper handle on the language. I'm going to throw a fit and ignore my critics any time anyone tells me that I might be wrong. That is the correct course of action, by your apparent line of logic.

>>158918994
>"傘" as "bumbershoot"
I'm going to find a chapter where the characters talk about umbrellas just so I can do this now.

Now stop being obnoxious and shitting up the thread.

Isn't it easier to just add 2 letters instead of like 12?

>>158919464
You're an idiot.
"low capacity" is not actually in the sentence, it's shown through the context of the statement.

You know what I find amazing? How pretty much anything can derail a thread, as people are always literally autistic about trivial things.

Will I get sued if I scanlate a Rustle work?
He's actually got a copyright for this unlike most of the doujins I've seen.
Actually, is that the reason why I can't find translations of his latest c90/c91 works?

>>158920960
Literally everything that isn't a doujin that gets scanlated is copyrighted.

>>158920960
Isn't he on Patreon offering english translated works nowadays?

>>158921035
If that's the case and it's a work that hasn't been TL'd, maybe the anon can go and talk to Rustle and offer to TL for free to be released under the creator's channel.

>>158921530
I don't think I'm qualified for something official like that.

>>158921035
I'd be surprised they haven't been ripped from there yet if that's true

>>158921003
Yeah, but isn't this guy "up there"?
What if he has hired goons or something similar?

I have tomorrow off, anyone have pages that needs cleaning?

>>158905640
I feel like this is a terrible question to ask for every thread. A lot of scanlators are going to be working on long running series, and you're not really going to get any discussion from us with that. Maybe "how's your releases coming along" would be better.

Does anyone have the raws of the magazine ガンガンJOKER from 05/2017 to the most recent?

>>158923063
It's just digital raws but I need layers to be duplicated, bubbles to be scrubbed, light leveling, resizing, and conversions from png to PSDs that are compatible with cs2
That or I need to figure out how to write scripts

>>158923373
I feel like this is a terrible answer. A lot of scanlators are not just working on a single series. But

When I say soon, it means within an hour or 2.

>>158924186
Nah not really. Don't know why figuring out Photoshop things is so hard for me. It's probably because I'm using a super old version and a lot of guides are for the newer ones. Really throws me off.

Shame about bzland though, what happened?

Someone posted a bounty for this a long time ago and it sat around unclaimed for a long time. Then someone came and claimed it so presumably someone was working on it. The bounty is gone now and the doujin isn't on the panda so I guess the guy never delivered. I never claimed the bounty and I only did like 2 pages. Its the first thing I attempted to typeset and I'm sure its ass.

>>158924578
Try to avoid typesetting so close to the edge of the bubble.

You really did a splendid job on this tank Dame Ningen.
Did you use Ai for the titles or just Ps?

>>158927327
Just do it, man. Unless either your group or their's are big enough for actual fallout to happen (not just "hurr, they sniped our series, boohoo, we were juuuust about the release a chapter (lie), they're a bunch of meanies"), there shouldn't be any problem.
We're all in the piracy business, so who really cares if a series gets lifted or not. If they have a patreon or something, then fuck their patreon. It's non-profit, so they can suck an ass.

>>158927327
Just release it and ignore them if they start any drama.

>>158927657
By the way, what series is that?

>>158927849
You should be able to guess based on the details I gave but Mikakunin. I'm also working on the authors' other series so it would be nice if I could work on this as well.

>>158927917
It's not really that obvious when since that could apply to a bunch of series.
Didn't they just release a chapter today?
Though, I agree, their TS is shit.

>>158927983
They released one today and the one before that was February. It's a fucking 4koma with 10 page chapters. Even my lazy ass can do slightly faster than that.

>>158928020
I see. I think their problem is that they have way too much on their hands for the staff they have.
I'm only working on 3 things (with 2 of them with at least 500 pages in backlog for both of them, one is relatively easy to typeset despite some tight bubbles sometimes and the other is a complete redrawing nightmare at times) right now and I have another on the backburner (not really popular, I'm not really interested in it and it's sort of a bitch to work on too.)
I doubt I'll work on anything new in at least a year unless the thing I'm not behind on gets finished/cancelled.

I think some people don't think about their work rate or workload when they pick series. I've had a good rhythm lately and I'm pretty happy about it. I've been doing at least one release a week for about 2 months. Hardest thing is to wait for TLs though. I can get a 30 pages chapter TLd and edited in 2 days while a 10 page chapter could take a month.

>>158928391
>they have way too much on their hands for the staff they have
Why do they even keep doing this? Seriously, it annoys me why so many groups pull this shit.

On a tangentially related note, so fucking glad japanzai is dead.

>>158928464
Picking up new series is fun. Keeping up with series is not fun.

>>158928464
>so fucking glad japanzai is dead.
Except several of the manga they were doing got picked up by groups that are doing the same thing. So there still end up being big release gaps for stuff like Chikotan or Youkai Shoujo. Effectively, nothing has changed.

>>158928585
Youkai Shoujo is because the translator is all >muh licensed and quit.

>>158928464
They probably mean well, but they just can't do it.
Plenty of people ask me to pick new stuff, but I have to tell them my hands are full. It sucks to be answered that, and it sucks to say it too, but I don't want to have 7-8 series and nothing actually gets done because I'd need to split myself (and my translators) in 5 (on top of actually having a job)

>>158927657
Good job. I've had a series that we were slow boat on jacked by a faster group, and the only thing that really annoyed me about it was not getting any kind of notification. It's unfortunate that the interwebs have largely destroyed courtesy, I guess because when you're anonymous you can get away with it.

>>158928626
Honestly I would also stop translating something that's licensed. I don't want to think that the time I spend working on it is wasted.
