Because
If you think today's (10/03) comic isn't up to par, keep this in mind:
Sunday night, just scanned it in. Well, I start working on it in GIMP, and I'm almost done! ALMOST! And then I go to overlay the text in, and the crap hits the fan. Because at that exact moment, Zone Alarm, Systematic AV, and AVG all chose that exact moment, 10:30 pm, to update.
Long story short, my Lappy crashed. And I lost all data. Including the strip. Only a miracle (and the fact that I work ten times as fast, and looked over some less obvious faults in the strip, like a background!) insured that Monday got a strip at all. So, please, forgive me. Blame my stupid computer.
In other news, the cast page was created, and now I'm just making all the characters. To fit into the page. Because it's the cast page. So it needs all the cast. But the page's code is down. Just need to add everyone up till now, and add all their info, which, considering that Pylon is a new strip, shouldn't take long. Why bother making a cast page at all, you ask? Well, this guy for one(may have to scroll down to find his entry on cast pages), suggests that it's the smart thing to do. And frankly, I think it's smart too. Predictably, as Pylon grows, the cast will grow, and I'll need something to keep the readers on track on who's who. Plus, I know that if I don't do it now, while the cast is small, I'll never get to it when the cast is larger. And that's terrible.
And some of you may have noticed that the site's a little different. I've been messing with the code a little, and as I get better with it, It may change from time to time. Some days it may be something small, other days it may be a whole site overhaul. I can't really be bothered to report all the minor tweaks I've done so far. It would eat around 10 of these blog posts a day, with "added another frame" or "deleted some excess codes I don't use anymore". So, if you come, and the site's different, that's why.
And That's Because! for today!
