Anyway, I ended up reworking the code so much that the next release is going to be a beta version of 2.0. After recieving a few suggestions, I’m also going to work on a sidebar widget for Manga+Press; possibly as a separate plugin. And, this is very important, I’m going to make Manga+Press fully WordPress 2.7 compatible. At the time I released Manga+Press, WordPress 2.7 had just been released so I didn’t really have a full opportunity to adapt the code to fully support 2.7, same goes for the theme that accompanies the plugin. So that is one thing to expect in Manga+Press 2.0; no support for WordPress 2.6 and full support for WordPress 2.7.
Anyway, back to work for me 
Later.

Can I use this plugin with my current layout theme? (ChaoticSoul v1.0)… I would really like to use the plugin, but I’d really like to keep my layout. Let me know.
Thanks! <3
Actually, you should be able to keep your current layout. You’ll have to make adjustments to your current theme to support the custom tags but the good thing about Manga+Press is that it’s meant for blogs where the comic is a part of the blog but isn’t actually the focus of the blog, if that makes sense.
However, I’d wait until I release the next version which at this point because of school and job hunting, probably won’t be until the spring.
