Hmm.. Why do I feel like I've seen this before? WEll anyways nice work! Good design! Voted for you in the top web comics, as I support any artist, writer, and etc. I read each sprite comic, heheheheh more nice work. And yeah I see that you have that Javascript rain effect for the main page.
Now I'll sit here and wait for the rest of the comments.

Hah, funny. ^_^ Hey, I have a PHP update script I'm working on if you want to use it. Although, You'd need a better host, such as 5gigs.com.

(Also, if you'd like, I cold code the rest of the website as well.)

You need to be shot for using BMP images for the comic on the "The Flux Zone" page...

man, thats wat not Sage meant. he means, DON'T SAVE YOUR IMAGES AS .BMP'S!!!!!! they use up too much space. see my sig? if i were to save that as a bmp, the size (b/kb/mb/gb, not pixels) would double or triple.

Pixels = the height and width of the image

So mainly the point is that bmps have no compression and doesn't have internet capabilities.. yet JPGs and GIFs have a better compression so it is over 4 times smaller than a BMP and has internet capabilites and such. And if you know, in paint when you save, just click on the dropdown-menu that says "24-bit Bitmap (*.bmp,*.dib)" and change it to "JPEG (*.JPG,*.JPEG,*.JPE,*.JFIF)" which has more compression but reduces it quality a little, and see, if your using 32-bit sprites just save it as a GIF instead.

Use PNG. It's compressed, and has almost no loss.
