Crack In New Drywall

Name: Gene Wight  City: Cambridge, ON

Question: I've just recently put up new gyprock, taped, mudded and sanded and it all looked great, then after one coat of the primer was applied, I've noticed very thin cracks forming along the seams of the gyprock, they almost look like a pencil has been drawn along them, but I can't figure out what has happened and mudded over a couple of them and the same thing has appeared again, so any help for this sitation, please get back to me ASAP, thanks Gene
