Okay!
Oh, no, it's upside-down . . . *sigh*. Oh, well. I've been having such issues with this, since it keeps refusing to download my projects . . . :(. It's nice that something finally showed up!! (even if it's upside-down) Right, so as you can see, I found an excellent example of a not-that-good graphic comic how-to - AND it's on the back of a chopsticks rapper!! The pictures and the words explaining the pictures do not match up, you see. Hmm . . . perhaps you don't. Here's what the wrapper says:
"Chopstick A is used for support and does not move. Put this chopstick between your middle and ring fingers."
-Followed by a picture of a single chopstick being held between the thumb and the first finger. Nothing is labelled as "A" -
"Put Chopstick B between your middle and index fingers, and hold it with your thumb."
-Followed by a picture of a chopstick parallel to the first one, pinched between the thumb and first finger.-
"Open the tips of the chopsticks and try to pick up food with them."
-Followed by a picture of a hand with a pair of chopsticks, with food either stabbed on the end, or magically attached.-
So, you see, this really isn't a good example of instructions in comic form. The pictures and the words don't line up at all - a Chopstick A and B are discussed, but never depicted clearly, and the fingers expressed holding the chopsticks in the picture are not the fingers expressed holding the chopsticks in the description. Anyone not already familiar with the use of chopsticks would be completely confused.
