iPhone Icon

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Ok, all you iPhone adopters.  I went and added an icon for Reclaimer for the iPhone.  Now, since I don’t actually have an iPhone, I’ve no way of testing to see if the icon actually shows up properly, so I’m going to need your help to check this one out.  If the icon doesn’t show up, please let me know, and if it does, let me know how it looks (and if possible, grab a screenshot of some kind that I can see).  Just a little extra something for my readers.

Reclaimer Wallpapers

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

If you haven’t checked out the forum yet, now is the time to do it.  It’s simple and fast to register and add your voice to the community.  I’ve also set up a board specifically for fan-created Reclaimer content, and HSAR has already created five wallpapers of characters that have already appeared in the storyline.  Go check them out, download them, and if feel free to add your own!  The more the merrier!

Link Exchange

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

I’m going to be putting together a links page that bridges to a lot of the webcomics that I read on a daily basis and enjoy.  The page will include a little thumbnail from each webcomic, a brief synopsis of the comic, and a link to allow you, the reader, to discover some truly high-quality webcomics.  Now, I’m very interested in and open to the idea of exchanging links with any other webcomic folks out there, so if you’re interested, please use the Contact page to send me a message expressing your interest and I’ll get back with you.

Server Load

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

You may have noticed that we’re experiencing heavy server loads at the moment.  No, I’m sure it has nothing to due with traffic coming over from HBO.  We handled all the traffic from HBO and Bungie both last week just fine.  What seems to be occurring is that one of the other accounts on my server (I have shared hosting) periodically experiences higher-than-usual amounts of traffic, and today is another of those instances.  A network administrator is looking into the problem, so I’m hopeful that things will improve again soon.  Please be patient.

Stats

Just to give you a little taste of traffic to Reclaimer this week, take a gander at this:

Stats

See that big spike right in the middle?  That was a combination of traffic driven to the site via HBO and Bungie.  You can also see about the day that the news item fell off the Bungie front page because the stats return to what is about normal for your standard working day around here.  I have to say that I enjoyed the traffic spike while it lasted.  Back to business as usual. 

A Heads-Up

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I just wanted to give a little forewarning to my readers – there’s a chance that tomorrow’s Reclaimer comic may not appear on time.  All the weather the Mid-west has been receiving the last few days has apparently caused some major DSL interruptions with my ISP.  I had no internet when I got out of bed this morning and, at last call to customer service, DSL service is still offline.  I’m hoping they’ll have it all fixed by the time I get home tonight, but if not, then there will be a bit of a delay in the comic until they get service restored.
