I know there are sites for colorists/inkes/pencillers/writers. Does anyone know of any boards where computer letterers post or look for work? I have a handful of pages that I wouldn't mind seeing lettered, but I have no idea how to use photoshop/illustrator... :sigh:

You could try the Creative forum at Millarworld. They get folks who do a little bit of everything, there. If you get a program called Gimp (sort of a free version of Photoshop) there's an online tutorial that's a breeze (it's how I learned).

Here's the tutorial:

And here's the page for Gimp.

Also, this site has different comic fonts you can use:

Hope that helps.

No problem! Someone did the same for me last year, so I'm just passing it on. :D
