Description
A template for 3-panel and 4-panel horizontal comic strips, with various combinations of merged panels.Far too many layers for all kinds of intermediate sketching and shading workflows (some time in the next month or two I'll post a tutorial showing an example or two of using most of the layers). Feel free to delete layers that are not appropriate for your personal workflow.
Edit or replace the text layers with your own content and fonts.
See my ancillary tutorial on creating speech balloons in FireAlpaca .
Edit: Used DrawPlus and Brad Guigar's comic strip measurements to create the panel overlays, everything else in FireAlpaca. Only FireAlpaca is required to use this, although it should also work fine in CloudAlpaca.

Not sure I understand.
I have not posted a template for vertical strips, but you could use FireAlpaca's features to create one. I am beginning to think I may have overdone the layers.

I'm wondering because I'm posting webcomics online so I wanted to know how to create one ' . '

Sorry for not getting back to you.
You can certainly set up your own vertical template, but I have not been able to find any vertical template standards (apart from full-page printed pages).

NOICE! Thank you for making this. Yes, I meant to say "NOICE!"

Thanks!
I assume you've seen some of the Kath & Kim series, where that particular expression arose - hopefully you've seen the Australian version, not the ghastly US remake that got the show's premise completely backwards - reminded me of Terry Pratchett's Reaper Man (which centers on the anthropomorphic representation of Death), where a film studio approached him to make a film of the book (can't remember if it was live action or animated), but they wanted to "lose the death angle"
