Cool Re: True Origins

Finally got a chance to reply after checking it out yesterday, and doing it again now (and not expecting Part 7 to come up on my second read). Great work! It's a pretty cool story as it progresses; I'm curious as to what the artifact Optimus found will turn out to be. (I know; it'll come when it's the right time in the story.)

I wonder if there's a certain graphics or visual software you're using, because I'm curious about the effects you've applied to some of the photos; an effect I want to use for some of my own photography work. I'm not sure what's the proper name for the effects technique, but it's the effect and/or "filter" (if that's the right term) to give the photo a kind of weathered look with a diagonal "blur". Examples of this visual effect is the very first photo of the story ("My name is Optimus Prime, and my story begins here"), and one of the early image in Part 4, when Optimus and Cliffjumper blast their way through an obstacle.

Also, a minor question regarding for the Ark-esque backdrops as set pieces. I have the same file, but I haven't gotten around to printing my own set yet. I was thinking about going to a place like Staples or the Photo Dept. at London Drugs, but I wonder what you might recommend for printing it - i.e. if you know a lower-priced print service, and what you printed yours on.

Great work thus far; already can't wait to see the next chapter!
