For the love of holy mamas, use proper grammar. Sorry I did not read the whole summary and I give kudos to anyone who will ever be able to get through this. You're never going to get far with (badly) colored linearts, reclours, sparkle animals and such horrible language skills. Also, your characters looks like normal animals. Only monkeys have opposite thumbs, this means neither dogs and cats can live exactly like humans. And as I stated before and I always will - dogs and cats can not mate and this idea is just way too weird. And no, sparkle animals and putting characters into completely unfitting realities is not creative. Instead of working on facts and possible realities to make your characters and stories unique, sparkles and weird ideas are the easiest way to make your story outstanding, but this isn't "unique" in a good way. Besides comic-making tutorials I posted in another list, there is another link I reccoment you to read and take advice - http://whyfags.blogspot.com/p/list-of-donts.html

Replacing what was secretly edited out without my permission: Troll Berserker wrote: For the love of holy mamas, use proper grammar. Sorry I did not read the whole summary and I give kudos to anyone who will ever be able to get through this. You're never going to get far with (badly) colored linearts, recolours, sparkle animals and such horrible language skills. You've got no business picking on her for her (admittedly) bad grammar and writing skills, even though you are not a native English speaker, if you are incapable of constructing a sentence in English, and in proper English grammar. And it would not be worth saying except for the fact that you seem hell-bent on picking on BALTOTLK for it. You, therefore, are subject to the same scrutiny, whether you like it or not. To wit (quotes from just your latest posting regarding her "catfamily" project)...corrected sentences are in red text, with proper changes/additions in blue text: "Also, your characters looks like normal animals." No. Too heavy on the use of plural text, and you botched the intended context. The proper way to say this would be: "Additionally, your characters don't look like normal animals."------"Only monkeys have opposite thumbs..."No. Improper use of an adjective. The proper way to say this would be: "Only monkeys have opposable thumbs..."( http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/opposable) ------"And as I stated before and I always will - dogs and cats can not mate and this idea is just way too weird."No. This is dangerously close to being a run-on sentence. The proper way to punctuate this sentence would be: "And, as I stated before (and I always will), dogs and cats cannot mate--so this idea is just way too weird."------"And no, sparkle animals and putting characters into completely unfitting realities is not creative."No. This sentence is almost incomprehensible as written (typed). It is grammatically weak. The proper way to state the point would be: "And really, creating sparkle animals, as well as putting your characters into completely incongruous situations, is not creative." ------ Yeah, see: "people in glass houses..." etc. etc.

You can't just simply make something into a movie, it's not that simple. And I'm not trying to be rude, but a story like this that needs work really isn't movie material. Now, if you were to seek help from maybe your mother, or someone who may be willing to help you, getting it published into a story book for children would be far more realistic. But even then, the publishing company may not publish the story if they see problems and will ask you to make changes. There is also, of course, the matter of the character designs. You should really draw your own characters in your own style and avoid sparkle animals. Using linearts of Disney characters won't get you very far. Now I'm no expert in law, but I'm not sure if using Disney character designs would be legal.

No, sparkles are not illegal.

Courage The Cowardly dog meant to be highly unrealistic and exaggerated comedy. Your project doesn't involve space ducks, giant spiders, talking aubergines etc.
