more signal, less noise
I just updated the algorithm that derives the list of new stuff over there in
the first column. It will now only list what is actually new for the week, and will spare
you from wading through all of the reorders on the list.
I've been programming a lot more lately, mostly due to finally setting up something close to an actual office for myself. It's amazing what having a good workspace can do for your productivity.
Speaking of which, I've been getting antsy with the store layout again. Expect to see some major changes in the next couple of months. I'm not exactly sure what's coming, but get ready for a shakeup.

GN search is live
Now you can search for graphic novels by title or description!
This is pretty useful if you want to find GNs by a particular author, like
Alan
Moore or Chris Ware. I can also now post more info-packed links about individual books I recommend, like
Maus,
Palestine or
Watchmen.
Not every book in stock has been added yet, but the list is growing daily.

freshly formed feedback forums
I just expanded our feedback forums to separate some of the discussions
currently jammed into what is now the miscellany
forum. I've added a board for comics and
one for customer service issues as well. I'm open
to suggestions for other topics as well, so let me know in the customer service forum.

website facelift
I finally got around to updating the look of this here website. I ditched some of the
superfluous elements and concentrated on readability and utility. The jazzy new design
was created by the fine folk at egon.

now with 75% more comics
Eagle-eyed readers will already have noticed the debut of a syndicated
comics box at the bottom of the page you're now reading. The good folks
at moderntales.com have seen
fit to allow web pages like this to show their webcomics for free!
Those who know me well know that free is a magic word to me, and I was all over this like white on rice. I even set up a seperate comics page so you can read them all. Enjoy.
