I've been changing some things about the site over the last couple days. None of them will be particularly noticeable to you, gentle reader, as they all take place behind the scenes. They may, however, temporarily break some things.
If this happens, please do not be alarmed. Instead, contact me via one of the many fine means detailed on the About page and let me know what's broken and, if possible, what error message you're getting.
You might have noticed that I just added a favicon to the site. It is a tiny wolf head. You have no idea how hard it is to make a 16x16 pixel image look even vaguely like a tiny wolf head until you have attempted this Herculean feat.
It's always been a pain for me to create and edit ICO files because popular image editing programs like Photoshop don't recognize them by default. There are a few ICO converters out there, but it makes the whole matter a two-step process. However, a little googling revealed this ICO file format plugin for Photoshop, which adds that missing functionality to Photoshop itself. It is supernaturally useful.
I've been so busy with other things lately that I haven't been updating my delightful and utterly exciting blog. I've finally kicked off on the Dalton comic, but I suspect there are still bugs to work out with regards to the site. Some of them will only magically appear when I post more than one comic. Exciting!
It will probably eventually get its own domain, but I'm waiting to see if I'm committed enough to it. Drawing a comic is hard, and drawing a comic regularly is even harder. Because I'm a horrible freak, I draw better on paper than digitally, so the comic is drawn and inked entirely by hand, with brushes and dip pens. Basically I guess this is an experiment in using the most archaic methods possible. Next thing you know, I'll be delivering the comic to your house via express telegram. (Due to the restrictions of the delivery medium, rather than receiving a comic, you will receive a truncated script with stirring descriptions of the images you would have seen had you been viewing the comic.)
I think the comic is looking all right, though. And perhaps it's a reasonable enough explanation for my absence. I'm not sure how frequently I'll update--I might try for bi-weekly, but I'm not making any commitments until I'm really sure what I'm doing. So there.
