Summary

The POV Cam allows you to view the pages of Andrew Hussie's Homestuck in a different order to normal, following the timeline of a single character.

To use the POV Cam, go to mspaintadventures as you would normally, and find that there are now some extra links on the page. Each of these links corresponds to a person on the page you're on. Click on a link to start following that person. This changes the order of the pages, so that they are shown from that character's point of view.

In case you didn't guess: Here be spoilers! Lots and lots of spoilers.

---- Features ----

Beyond the scope of just changing the page links, this extension also has other features, which you can enable/disable through the options page.

You can find the options page by clicking on the "POV Cam Options" link, that appears beneath the links on each page.

These features are designed to make it easier to read Homestuck:

I do not have any complaints besides the fact that it would be nice to jump to the first page for a character timeline-wise.The wiki has some links, but not for ALL of the characters.

VERY helpful, especially when trying to compare events for characters in a more linear fashion, trying to analyze character development etc.

I can't even begin to imagine how long this took to make.
