If somebody make a comic with multiple pages, how one would upload it here?  
How one can be sure that people can navigate trough the pages?  
And one only have to tag the contents of the page or the entire comic on the pages?

@NoriJaeger  
I usually see two ways people upload these: one page at a time, or all the pages in one image (usually one really tall stack of all the pages). I kinda prefer individual pages (as a viewer) since stacked pages usually are fairly difficult to make out via thumbnail. But they’re also a bigger pain to upload (one at a time; over time so people don’t complain about the site being “flooded”).
 
For navigation, I usually see people use the >>#### links (like ‘>>1’) in the image’s description to link to the next page, previous page, and first page. Although if you upload the pages in order, and give them all a unique tag (something like “comic:” followed by the title of the comic), they can also navigate via that tag. (If you click into an image from a search, the right and left arrows can be used to navigate forward/backward through the contents of that search.)
 
I’m pretty sure tagging should always apply to the particular image (as opposed to the whole comic). Although you could add in content warnings in the description so people can have an idea of what they’re in for.

Nice job all the same, though.
 
What I find really helps me with drawing hands is a site called “Posemaniacs”. I’m going to warn you right now, it defaults to an artistic nude of a man’s torso and nothing is censored, so I was hesitant to post it here (SFW thread and all) but I honestly think it’s worth sharing here for how valuable of a tool it is:  
http://www.posemaniacs.com/tools/handviewer/  
It’s basically 20 different 3D models of hands (as well as one torso, foot, and head) that you can rotate, mirror, zoom in and out. It’s been monumentally helpful in drawing hands.
 
You can really see how helpful it is in this image. I think I did a fantastic hand for this image, and it’s entirely owed to that website:

Thanks for that.  
A handy reference certainly (sorry), aside from the initial eyeful when you first visit the page.
 
Might go back to that for a later drawing.
 
Currently I have a few ideas in the pipeline.  
  1. A request from Salamenace. That’s my next drawing, unless I do a random one in between.  
  2. Sunset Shimmer reading Anon’s mind (Legend Of Everfree). Aiming for a funny one there.  
    Have her straight after the eye flash with one pupil bigger than the other and a few straggly hairs. Then walk past Twilight. “Sunset?”  
    “Just need to go bleach my brain….”  
  3. My 40k crossover comic is LONG overdue for an update. Got a page around 1/3 done, but keep putting it off because they always get mediocre scores and represent several hours’ work.  
  4. Dazzlings Return comic, also overdue for a third page.

PM me Maud pics
Another pic of Maud. I like drawing her, her vibrant expressiveness speaks to me on a spiritual level.
 
Had a lot of fun shading her clothes. Still some inconsistencies with the lighting though, especially on the sleeve on the dress. Could’ve also done more with the background, but i’ve been feeling a bit groggy with this fever i’ve caught so i couldn’t really be bothered with that right now.
 

 
Her mane also kinda looks like jelly but what can you do, such is life

Not bad. Got all the proportions spot on. Simple but effective.
 
At least pony Sunset is a bit more forgiving when drawing her mane. EG Sunset’s hair is a pain to draw.

Whilst I haven’t been following the story, I have had a read through since you’ve been posting links here.
 
It’s… different.
 
Need to read it from the start I think. Isn’t making much sense at the moment.

It could also be down to the fact I’ve only read… what… 3-4 pages?
 
I know how much work goes in to producing a comic page (My Staff of Aurelian comic, and the Dazzlings Return comic each represent around 7-10 hours work per page!), and seeing them get mediocre scores is a little disheartening. Especially when a quick sketch of Fluttershy which takes just an hour or so can net me a score here of 80+.  
That one that’s currently my highest scoring one (linked on my “about me” on my profile page), only took an hour to do.
