#63 - Weight is a State of Mind.
Yay!
The website's redesign is almost done! I think I only need to fix some slight problems with the F.A.Q. and Links pages, which is no big deal. Unfortunately, since I'm heading back to Montreal for the rest of the week and week-end, I'll only be able to fix it sometime next week.
As this new design required technical expertise way beyond what I know and understand, it couldn't have been done at all without Fodi's Matthew Buchwald. In fact, he did it for me. So please, do what I did and convert to FODIANITY! If there are enough of us, and become a legitimate religion, Matt'll be able to save a hefty sum on his income taxes!
Normally, I would have titled strip #63 "Encumbrance Only Matters When You Remember it Exists," but I ran out of room. Of course, a player only remembers it when it adversely affects monsters and NPCs. GMs just don't remember period. There's a lot of other stuff to think about than a character's weight allowance, most especially if you suck as a GM to begin with.
And I do enjoy how Thoar's attacking with his spetum like it's some sort of pogo stick. That's cool. Had I a spetum, you can bet that's how I'd be attacking!

Um. You have some other things to fix about the website. As in, when I click on the link from http://www.casual-gamers.com/ to view the latest comic in Firefox (Windows), the comic is stuck inside an inner frame that doesn't scroll. Also, while the background graphic looks cool, it's really not user friendly to have a header that pushes the content down 280 pixels.
With Firefox I can scroll on the main page, not scroll in the comic except with the arrow keys, and not scroll this blog at all so I can only see half of Anna's message. I can only post this since tab still works to get to other links... With IE, I can't even see the first page except the header and nothing happens if I click on news or newest toon.
The design looks good, but I agree - the header takes up almost half my screen.
I use Firefox and so far so good :)
Hey, good page btw :) is looking awsome
Scrolling has been re-enabled everywhere on the site, so that part should work fine.
However, most versions of IE will still see a 1024 pixels high white space between the header and the rest of the site content. It's as baffling as it is annoying, and I still have no clue as to why that happens. :(
The whitespace is almost certainly caused by the use of position: relative CSS tags.
Basically, Internet Explorer creates empty space for any positioned elements, on top of the space they naturally take up when repositioned.
Between the following CSS elements:
div#chris
div#dan
div#oldchris
div#jp
div#tony
div#eyeskreamAd
div#rightMenu
..you have 915 pixels of needless whitespace being created. To my (very limited) knowledge, there's no fix currently available.
