This website is really neat because it is used to tell a story in a comic format. It is similar to Comic Life but I feel is easier to get the hang of because there is step by step instructions along the way. This would be an easy website for students to use to tell their own story. The only draw back is that their is only three frames to a page which can feel a bit limiting. But, you can change the color and format of those three cells. Another neat feature is that through the step by step process, when you get to uploading pictures, you can upload your own or use flickr for images. They also have an "add some fun stuff" feature where you can decorate your cells with playful images and icons to enhance your comic. This would be something I would use in the classroom because students would have the ability to access their comics at home where as most of my students do not have comic life on their home computers. Plus, it is formatted in a way to suit my middle school students.
