I've decided to change the fan-section with just a "Stuff" section. Full of O&M stuff. Things like icons(for AIM, avatars, etc.), wallpaper...anything to do with O&M. There'll still be fanstuff, but it'll hold other stuff too. Stuff.<br><br>But I need more ideas. Anyone? What sort of stuff would you like to see at Define 'Cynical'? Post!

Alright, I've changed the title image so you can see Millie's shirt and the globe.

There. I've done all I've promised. Now I just hope this gets at least a few new visitors...

I like the new header. Although, it seems that the website is now optimized for a 1024 x 768 resolution, making me have to scroll sideways due to my 800 x 600 resolution.<br>I looked at the web page's source code and found that you made the links table be 198 pixels wide, which is far more space than the links need anyway. I tested the page using a "100%" width on the two side links tables rather than the "198" width, and it worked perfectly. I'd suggest making the table more flexible.<br>Also, if someone sees the page in a higher resolution, your links tables will look short. The "100%" variable is the way to go.<br><br>One more thing, shouldn't this thread be in the "The site" forum?

Heh, you're right about that, I'm at school right now and this computer uses 640x480. I'm actually using an old template that I've edited heavily, and it was like that initially. I should've changed that though. Ah well, as soon as I get home I'll fix it up.<br><br>Also, yes, it is in the wrong forum. I'm not quite sure why I put it here. Maybe because I thought more people would see it here, who knows? I'll move it now though. Thanks.

For the site design, could put some sort of margin at the top of the page? The image and navigation links look a bit odd to me being that high up. Maybe move the whole thing down by about 5-10 pixels? Other than that, this site looks excellent!

You mean like this? It's only really on the forum that it was high up, since it doesn't use the same html template as the main site.

I just got here after reading the message on the official O&M website and I have to say it looks pretty good. I had started visiting O&M around the time David Simpson was sharing "The Border" (about August 21). I read through the whole archive the following weekend and tried to recruit more fans wherever I could.<br><br>Anyway, I think it's awesome that someone has finally made a discussion board so I can find more people that share in the enjoyment of this great comic.

I think it's great that there is an O&M message board now. It's my favorite comic by far, and it's not one of those empty comics that is just amusing. Some of the strips actually get you thinking, and have some social commentary, and that makes it a great topic for a message board. Anyway, the site looks great. And hopefully with the mention on the O&M site, lots more fans like me will come here. Keep up the good work!!!<br><br>
