   I Use Storyboard That Every Day

   As a former classroom teacher of French and Spanish, English Language Arts, and Social Studies, my business now is creating resources for language teachers to tell stories and teach about culture, geography, history, and other content...in a language that may be quite new to the students. So, with that kind of work, you can bet I am always on the lookout for the best tools to visually scaffold the information so it is easier to understand through pictures, icons, and other design elements. I use Storyboard That almost every single day in my work on these materials. Since the resources are for (mostly) children and teens, I prefer a comic or cartoon-y style. Storyboard That is my go-to "character generator." I use it to make and pose characters into scenes and then I combine these groups of characters with Canva, to create PNGs that I then make into presentations for giving mini-lessons in class, texts for kids to read in class, etc. For me, Canva AND Storyboard That together are the perfect solution, and the price is right, for my purposes, as Pixton (which integrates directly with Canva) charges about $500 a year for the rights to replicate your work using their library for commercial purposes, whereas Storyboard That is only $12 or so a month, which includes that permission level for your original compositions. Pixton without that level of permission is about $40 a month, so you would need to think about what the integration of the two would be worth for you in terms of efficiency or the available images and effects in Pixton. For $144 a year, Storyboard That is an excellent option for me. And for free, you can create three active storyboards at a time, so you could potentially use it and never pay a dime.

   🏁 Competitors: Pixton

   👍 Pros:    Allows commercial use of your designs using their elements|Has a free option that allows you to make three active storyboards|Affordable price|Good range of racially-diverse characters

   👎 Cons:    Interface needs improvement|The dragging and clicking is often cumbersome for me.|No canva integration (pixton integrates with canva directly but costs substantially more)

• It sucks to suck i guess

  I'm not sure if this will help but gaiaonline.com and www.rprepository.com would be great places for you to check out. It's hard being young as a roleplayer. I was in your position too. And it's because of that, I agree with what a lot of people saying. But there are still other sites (like the ones mention) that can be of a great use for all ages. Source: almost 2 years ago

• hi! does anyone know any cute fashion games like stardew valley? i’m looking for the kinda games where you make the clothes yourself, but i’m open to anything!

  Gaiaonline.com - This is a very old browser community I once joined. You basically create your own avatar, and you browse around their website to collect coins, and various fashion items. Though it's not really a design your own sort of fashion, but they've got tons of items to dress up your avatar, and monthly fashion (costs you) for some extras. Source: over 2 years ago

• Found this dude recently on a Facebook meme about reaction-based fishing minigame had the most needed focus. I'm not sure but I think he is. You're a writer if you write. Thus, you're a gamer if you play games, no matter what games you are playing.

  I love fishing games, mini or otherwise. It probably would've broken their brain if I said, before Flash player died a horrible death, that my favorite fishing "mini game" was on the website gaiaonline.com! Gasp! Oh the horror, oh the...wait, Gaia whuuuuuuut? Source: over 2 years ago

• What is the stupidest thing someone has gone “elitist mode” on you about?

  I still recall a time when I was much younger and had a gaiaonline.com account, some japanophile dweeb got upset that I and a few other people were having a discussion about Japanese media using English terminology. Source: almost 3 years ago
