Hi Dara I’m back :wink:
So when somebody chooses what they look like (specifically hair for my case) and I decide to do a flashback and change their hair how do I change the hair back to it’s original look without having the reader choose their hairstyle again?

You’d have to use a duplicate character and change that character’s hair. Then when you’re done with the flashback, just switch back to the main character.

In order to move the speech bubbles, do I use the command @speechbubbles? or is there a different command for that?

2422

You have to change their layers. The male character needs to be at a higher layer than the female character: HOW TO: Move Characters / Overlays to the Layers

Hi, Dara!
I am currently making a story with a scene that requires a certain background to make sense and I’m definitely not an artist. I need the front door of a house with a bright orange sign attached that says “EVICTION NOTICE”. What would be the best way to obtain that?

2427

Also
I think I should probably learn how to make backgrounds, cover art, etc. Do you know any good programs for that?

2428

If you check out the Art Resources section, there are many wonderful people there that are willing to create/edit backgrounds and art for everyone. All you have to do is just ask.

Hey! This isn’t really for directing help, but is there any active threads where you can ask an opinion on dialogue? I asked my friend, but i’d love to see an opinion from someone else in the community. :heart:

You can ask or post a thread in the Share Feedback section of the forums. There are a lot of people willing give any type of feedback on your stories.
