I am a teacher with many students in my classroom. I'd like to work with the class creating comics. Can we all share one account, or does each student need to register as a user? Does everyone need their own email address to register?

  1. We're pleased you want your students to use our website to create comic strips in the classroom! Though not required, we recommend each user has their own account if possible for best comic strip storage and retrieval. An email address is optional to register and log in. However, if a student registers without including an email address, he/she/they will be unable to recover their password if it's ever lost. The reset password functionality sends an email to a registered email address. Without an email address, the system will not be able to help reset a lost password.

Here's how to sign up using just a username/password.

  1. You (or a Student) need to register for a new account using a username and password. Email is optional.
  2. Please note that the Username must be unique.
  3. On successful registration, you will be able to log in using the details submitted.

Here's how to reset/forgot password.

  1. You need to go on 'login' page and click on 'Lost your password' option.
  2. Please put your Email or Username and click on 'Get New Password' button.
  3. You get reset password link via 'email'.
  4. Set your new password.
  5. If you reset your password then it does not affect any of the saved comic strips.
  6. It's just a method to resetting the password in case a user forgets it.
