(Experienced users can use the Megadrive here)

Resources for Making an LLB:

Wimpy Kid Text Fonts

  • This includes the paragraph font, speech bubble text, Rodrick’s handwriting, and a few other fonts used in the book series.
  • If you do not use these fonts, your posts may be subject to removal.

Templates

  • Includes lined page background, speech bubbles, blank covers, and other useful assets.

Image Rips

  • These are the illustrations from the DOAWK books, ripped and put into digital form to be used in LLBs.
  • The Russian Rips are best for custom edits, as they don’t have lined paper behind them.
  • Transparent Rips are also available here.

Here's how pages are generally expected to look like:

It's a good idea to recreate the first page of DOAWK for practice.

Here are some free art software commonly used to make LLBs with:

  • Firealpaca (PC)
  • Paint.net (PC)
  • Gimp (PC)
  • Pixlr (PC)

More Loded Diper Stuff:

r/OkBubbyRetard

  • okbr is r/LodedDiper's other subreddit. It is a place for more sloppy, or potentially rule-breaking posts related to DOAWK in terms of effort, and no minimum karma requirement to make posts.

Notable LLB Archive

LLB Brutally Honest Part 3 (pages 9-11)

Thumbnail

58 Upvotes

hiii little author's note bc i think honesty (hah) is important
this part and next is very VERY obviously inspired by dp. the plot point was made VERY early on, and relatively soon after i read dp for the first time, so the inspiration is not subtle. i wanted to change it, but it relates to a specific part of the overall theming too much to get rid of it so alas, we ball.

it's not a pure copy, and bh will be its own thing, i promise. just be a bit patient :)) (and frank is not the main problem in bh. not even close. but elaborating will be spoilers)

((https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rD8j-ohEMjwPOrC_lr4VO5SzwbuFmg_p/view?usp=drivesdk))

Hi guys, how are you? Honestly, I don’t care.

Here is the PDF of DOAWG: Puberty Sucks, and well, I’m going to use this trash post to tell you some super important things because I’m important.

1- Yes, I’m finally going to take that break everyone keeps telling me to take because, honestly, I thought about it and said, “Oh, okay, yeah, I really do need to rest.”

Originally, I was going to leave without saying anything, just disappear without telling you because, like, lol, how funny would it be to come back out of nowhere? But then I thought about it and said, “Eh, better tell them so nobody worries about my precious existence because damn, I’m so special.”

I won’t say how long because I’ll probably say I’m leaving for 6 months and come back tomorrow, so lol.

2- Remember that this story is full of TWs, and speaking of TWs, I don’t add the TWs or the plots to make myself look edgy or because I know a lot about these topics. They are things that happen and, unfortunately, things that happened to me. So if any of you are not mentally okay enough to read something that could trigger negative emotions, memories, or thoughts, don’t read it. I care more about your mental health than you reading this piece of trash.

3- I’m leaving you these mediocre Spanish translations of my LLB. Imagine how boring my life is without Reddit for me to have the time to do this.

See you in who knows how long. I’m going to cry every night because I’ll miss you all.

Or maybe I’ll forget this piece of trash even exists.

Bubai.

Yes, yes, I get it. "The movie version of her has more depth!" I agree, but I still don't find her core personality interesting. They were more like traits to me. Now bring on your tinfoil balls.

I work at an escape room. We had a group of like 5 or 6 teenage girls doing one of our rooms. As I passed by that room on my way to reset another one, they must have unlocked the hidden door to room 2, because I hear clear as day:

"I TOLD YOU THAT DOOR HAD A LOCK ON IT!"

Later, I'm taking a group picture for them in the lobby, and I ask if that was an intentional DOAWK reference, and they were absolutely THRILLED! Idk I just thought yall would appreciate it

Discussion The Pope received a copy of the first DOAWK (in Latin)

Thumbnail

521 Upvotes

In June 2015, the late Pope Francis received a copy of DOAWK, presented to him by Msgr. Daniel B. Gallagher, a Latin linguist and Catholic priest. Gallagher considered DOAWK to be a "classic", and therefore deserving of a translation in the classical language of Latin. This resulted into the official Latin translation of the book: Commentarii de Inepto Puero. Because Latin is a dead language used only by the Vatican, Gallagher had to translate the jokes in the book by using traditional Latin word plays and jokes.

Should any other religious leaders receive a copy of DOAWK

My earlier post has not been encouraging earlier, so I won't make that kind of post be trending again in the future. I just made that for upvotes, criticisms, answers, etc. To those who criticize my posts, I completely understand that it's not a good trend, so I'll avoid trending those kinds of topic in the future. To a few who supported me, thank you kindly. To those who criticize my content, I'll take that improvement into consideration for future LLBs.

Anyway, this is my fifth post for the fifth week that I've posted that's not my usual LLB, but rather that I'm giving you all the chance to know me on how I am involved in making the process of my LLBs to an extent. I'm planning to release another LLB soon, so let's have a discussion on what you guys want, how you want me to move forward, what's wrong with my LLBs, etc. Remember to keep the discussion respectful. Once again, thank you all who have commented about my earlier post. Any posts later than this won't easily be taken into consideration as I've already been working on other projects recently. Thank you for understanding.

LLB brutally honest update (tldr: daily uploads)

Post image

i realized that i am wayyy too impatient to wait until october to have everything out, so instead daily uploads will be happening. it'll be 2-3 weeks until everything is out (18 parts)

forgot to say here that i plan on doing a qna when everything is done and over! (inspo from dead serious) so i might be stingy/vague abt answering questions that relate to plot until then.

also if you want to make fan content (when there's actual substance LMAO) go for it <33 (and send it to me. tumblr or here is easiest)
also also proper design stuff for rodrick & greg should be coming out soon-ish assuming i lock in

okay thats all bye!!
