"Done Today?"
I can't begin to tell you how frustrating this last week's been in terms of getting the Graphic Smash Fans archive up and running.
On the one hand, I'm thrilled that Graphic Smash gets to go first. That's thanks to you, the readers, who have written Joey more frequently than the readers of any other sites.
However, through no fault of Joey's, something has always gotten in the way, be it his efforts to restore the site, Comcast, my own overstrict security settings, or The Tax Professional, where I've been earning a little extra cash with my days. As I write this, the new and vastly improved Graphic Smash control panel throws an error when I try to log in, and apparently my overzealous security system is to blame. ("Better safe and sorry," is ZoneAlarm's motto.)
I only have an hour or two more to work this before I head off to ODU Anime Fest 2005. Good buncha guys-- great buncha guys-- but likely the smallest convention I'll ever guest in. Greg Eatroff is one of the organizers, so there you go. I expect a good time will be had by all twelve of us.
So. I'm scheduling the Fans rebirth for Sunday afternoon, along with all the GS edits for the week. I'll coordinate it with Joey, give myself a backup computer and backup Internet connection to work on, and see how that does.
If you've missed a strip or two, hang on till then. The restored "Ways the World Ends" (about 120 pages so far) will be free next week only, as an apology from me to you for all the server-related trouble.
Unless, you know, we get hit with an electromagnetic pulse on Sunday like the one in Dark Knight Returns.
Then it will be the following week.
