Okay so the site still doesn’t look too hot in IE. I suggest Firefox or Chrome. I’ll check out Safari and Opera later.
Point is, CttC is now using page caching, so we should be faster – possibly even fast enough to survive a digg hit. I’ll look at adding links to sharing sites later, too. I also altered the header so the ad bar is static the way our banner is. that way it won’t shift around when you resive the window.
It’s the little things that count…
With the, sorta, death of Uber.com… I switched over to wordpress… which was super easy to do… so now… a new blog for me to write in, and for you guys to enjoy.
I just want to take this opportunity to thank Frumph for being awesome. In addition to being just an overall cool guy with a nicely-managed site, he’s featured us on his front page this month in a favorable review, bringing increased traffic and extra ego points. Observe this screenshot from his site:

Please do us and yourselves a favor and follow the link to check out his site. It’s worth it. Plus, of course, we always love to climb those ego-ladders!
EDIT: Frumph’s is now Webcomicplanet. Link has been updated accordingly.
An excerpt from my online banking summary. This has been… a trying week.
The far right column? that’s my balance.

Just letting everyone know that I DO offer prints of each comic strip, and anything else in my lovely Portfolio. I can do any size up to, 11X14in I believe, and each print comes on wonderful photo paper, autographed (front or back, your choice) by me, and James (if you want)
If you want any details, please feel free to email me at Emrys@close-to-the-chest.com and I will happily take requests and money!
On a side note… the comic this week was late because The Force Unleashed AND Rock Band 2 moved into our house, and I had a choice between gaming, sleep, parenting, or drawing a comic… and well… the comic kinda got shelved… Woops… I promise, I will try for it to not happen again… I said I would TRY…
