I have taken the liberty of bumping the Picky
Picky Game forward to the next panel. I have also cranked
the speed up a notch: each ‘week’ will be 3 days for
the next little while.
The idea is to let us test the various behind-the-scenes
mechanisms of the game so that we can risk mentioning it to
people at COMICS
2003 in Bristol this bank-holiday weekend.
The CSS has been
tweaked to not use auto
margins, because they are
not supported in MSIE.
I have returned the Picky Picky Game to its
weekly schedule. The reason for going at double speed was to
fill up the home page with non-gash pictures, and this has been
achieved. So you have until Thursday night to upload a
candidate for panel 19.
We just got back from COMICS 2003, which was fun. We mentioned
Picky Picky to as many people as we could, so either the server
will be overwhelmed with activity, or no-one will bother
clicking though and we will be miserably ignored. Who knows
what the future holds?
The journey
back was a disaster—approximately 4½ hours (mostly
spent waiting in cold drafty stations). A nasty combination of
reduced Oxford–Bristol service, engineering works and
football game crowds made the train journeys particularly
unpleasant—at when there was a substitute bus we got to
sit down...
