Hey my friend is stuck, there's a pop up window and it's all grey and no way to get back to the zine maker (not even to force quit it). The popup window came from the image overlay tool. Any tips on how he should proceed?
oh thank you! that's really good to know!! i JUST got a new Windows machine and plan on installing Linux so i can finally troubleshoot and get Linux users something that actually works. thanks much for the answer.
thank u for making this! i've made a couple of cute zines with it and i keep telling other ppl to try it. i think it's important for zines to be fun to make and a normal image editor isn't much fun even if you don't have to wrestle with it as often (the wressling is also fun). un, thanks again :)
I like this game a lot :D only problem i have is about the colors. The colors kept changing every time i switched tools or something. Now i can't change the color back to black because now it's stuck as grey.
Hi there! I recently discovered Electric Zine Maker and I fell in love at a first sight, so here I am, making my own zines. You're more than welcome to take a look at my profile. T here is only one, but it's just the beginning. Thank you very much! :)
are you keeping the Electric Zine Maker app on your desktop? can you try downloading this one and telling me if it's still broke (older version): https://gamejolt.com/games/zine/426661 i'm having a hard time recreating this on my Windows machine (it seems to work)
i think i just figured it out. let me know if this works... if you are using Avast, then Avast blocks saving. you need to add EZM as an exception. here is how: https://www.minitool.com/news/avast-add-exception.html let me know if this works, thank you.
Hello! I just tried to make an awesome zine but I wasn't able to save it :<<< it creates the folder, and then kind of closes my zine but never actually saves the content :(
I love this. So much better than doing it by hand. I am working on making 8 page zines with an A4 'poster' on the back (ensuring poster content can deal with a cut through the middle). I would love to have a back page maker as part of this. If not that's fine I'll just join 2 PDF files together. Will pay after payday :)

Is adboe really needed to run the Zine maker?
No absolutely not required. What system are you on? Is this Windows??
Oh ok. Iḿ using linux mint : )

Hey! did u manage to make it work on linux? :3
Not yet. I usally get most things to work with WINE but i had no luck with this one so far
whats a zine
It's like a mini homemade magazine. Search zine on Wikipedia to learn more.
oh ok

I found out how to fix it :D very fun game i say :]
EDIT: Is this actually a game though?
I think it's more gamification than a game.
The "better halftones" effect is a bit dangerous - it lets me choose values that lock up the CPU too easily right now!
When you try to export a pdf book of the normal accordion template the pages are all small. Is there any fix to this issue?
OK this is pretty amazing! Any chance at a couple more "retro" type features?
Keep up the great work!
I got this error: application descriptor not found.
I am running this or trying to through WINE since the itchio desktop on linux integrates with it and everytime i try to launch it, I get that popup
I made a zine with this back in November that I've recently put up on my profile! I love this program :)
omg
made my first zine with this :D its so fun!!!
I just uploaded my first ever zine made with this lovely program!! It's on my profile, and I can't wait to make more!! Lots of love

do you need adobe air for this to work :) since its just popped up saying it does :c
no you don't, this is a bug. are you using macOS?
Saving isn't working for me. I'm on Windows. It creates the myZine folder, but it's empty. Exporting seems to work, though.
are you keeping the Electric Zine Maker app on your desktop?
can you try downloading this one and telling me if it's still broke (older version): https://gamejolt.com/games/zine/426661
i'm having a hard time recreating this on my Windows machine (it seems to work)
I figured it out, it was something to do with Avast antivirus. Disabling that has made it work. Sorry to bother you.
i think i just figured it out. let me know if this works...
if you are using Avast, then Avast blocks saving.
you need to add EZM as an exception. here is how: https://www.minitool.com/news/avast-add-exception.html
let me know if this works, thank you.
It's working since I added the exception. It's a cool piece of software, TY.
THIS IS SO SWAG
weeee
To be hoest, I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN THE APP OR THE PAGE, but also, I LOVE IT I LOVE IT REALY, its awsome!
No REALLY I managed CREATE a z1n3 and actually COMPLETED it. I am proud of myself and sorrounded by the beautiful glitchy colors of this program.
my antivirus keeps saying this is a threat but is it really?
No it's safe, you just have to add an exception to your anti-virus program
ah okay thanks
Alien is truly a CSS wizard
cool
odd atmosphere, odd story, fun tool. man, i love this thing
