How long does it take you to upload manga?

First time doing it, so ofc I was gonna make sure it was gonna look perfect. Yeah, not so great.

1) crop 2) convert to pdf 3) one of the pdf was bigger than the rest, so I trying to figure how to fixed it 4) merge pdfs 5)spend hours trying to figure out what converters work and suck 7)finds out i need Imgbox and need jpg 8) spend hours to try to upload on imgbox 9) total time 4 hrs

Btw can anyone recommend me any programs/converters? Any tips on how I should upload? Should I start with pdfs then to jpg? Good programs to convert from pdf to jpg etc?

    For me to finish an upload it takes about 2 or so hours.
    I use a program called Clip Studio Paint where I first merge screenshots, then I crop then by changing the canvas size and finally remove watermarks. I save them as a jpg
    I am able to do this because I paid for a drawing tablet and the program (for unrelated reasons)
    There are a few free drawing programs that would probably work as well (for your case you will need a transformation tool for changing sizes of the crops and a changeable canvas size to add crops together)
    I hoped this helped, if not I can do a little more research on some programs that work !! Good Luck fellow uploader

    Hi, I didnt know that I had to upload to imgur. I made it into pdfs bc everything I use are pdf files, so I didn't think much at first oof

    I use google drive. I'm using add ins and website converters. They weren't rlly that great. It was a mess bc I rlly didnt know what I was doing.

    Took 4 hrs and im going to try it again bc it was blurry. I'm thinking of just screenshoting and uploading to imgur. First time I used imgbox. I think imgur will prob have a better quality.

    I still don't know much about uploading and I still need to find some good programs. If you know any free ones, it would be rlly helpful!
