I got invited over here to plug a while back and am just getting to it so here goes. Go to www.gutterflycomix.com for an unique online comic that takes advantage of many of the things inherent only to the internet. The comic, Green: Wicked Wicked Ways, we currently have going is on the 4th episode with the 5th one to be released in May of 2005. The comic centers around 4 thieves, Nazi conspiracy and plot twists I don't even understand yet. It's a kick in the nuts with a slap in the face. Check it out. And thanks.

It could be that your connection is too slow. I dont mean that rudly, its just that if you are on dialup then you wont be able to see the site or comic in any timely manner. If that is not the case I am not sure why you cant see the site.

You should have a version for dial up.

Yeah this has been a giant heated discussion in the past on boards about our stuff. We toyed with the idea of making the site dialup friendly or making two versions and came to these conclusions.
1.) In about a decade or less dialup will be irrelevant so why bother catering to those people.
2.) Most dialup users tend to not use the internet for stuff that is bandwidth extensive. I say MOST, some still do, but refer to point one about that.
3.) Our comic lends itself to flash and broadband usage so much that even if we did cater our site to dialup, the dialups still wouldnt be able to read the comic. What we do in our comic and our concepts for the comic cannot be acheived as well in HTML as they can in Flash.
4.) This is the most important, coding in HTML takes way too much time compared to Flash (Flash is more user friendly to graphic designers like me) and we got very little time to devote to updating and maintaining one site version, much less two.
Sorry if those of you on dialup can't see our stuff, I really am.
