Beta Testing a New Webcomic Project

[thepastelsuit]

No.

Are you getting an error or anything? That seems kind of strange.

[McDuffies]

It starts loading but doesn't go beyond blank screen, and eventually the session expires. If all americans are seeing the site all-right, it might be because I'm in serbia?

Yea, that's what I'm thinking. The site also hosts a lot of confidential and top secret Serbian Government documents used to exploit prominent leaders and blackmail them for money and legislation... but that shouldn't have anything to do with it... are you able to get to http://www.web-hosting.com? If not, then yea, there's probably an IP restriction set on that host from your current location (lame).

[McDuffies]

I can see the hosting site fine.

Well that's no good. Kinda hard to beta test a site you can't visit

What browser are you using?

[McDuffies]

Opera, but I tried it in Firefox too.

I don't know if this is related but your straight IP address won't bring up realpseudo.com

Interesting, what country are you in?

[Phact0rri]

I'm in the USA. California. Los Angeles.

[McDuffies]

Hollywood!

Wait, are you saying that just the IP won't come up? That's ok, that's normal with a lot of web hosts, they just have multiple shared hosting accounts on the same ip with domain routing through Apache. You can get to www.realpseudo.com thought right?

Hey, I got main page now, and even news after a few refreshes. But comic assets is still blank screen.

If you have a slow connection, the comic-asset preview might take a long time to load. I have no loading indicator on that screen.

[McDuffies]

I don't think I have a particularly slow connection, and anyways it always expires in the end.

[Phact0rri]

Yeah just the IP. But that means that the Name server is having a lot more work to do. And depending on physical location of the server and the fact that its shared, well I can see why a connection from Serbia is awfully slow.

Haha, yea, the host is so awful. I've got a better host I usually go to, but this one was like $12 for the year with the domain I'll upgrade if the project picks up

First comic is in the works!
