Woot! I'm on it too! Finally! But of course mine wouldn't go anywhere as far as yours or great Poe!<P>*grumble mumble*<P>As for me, I'm having problems with the folder too. As far as I can guess, you just upload/create a folder named bigpanda in your /insertcomicnamehere/workspace/ directory. But I'm not sure if its working yet or not.<P>If that doesn't work, try the public folder (which I need to do).<P>-Caster<P>------------------

Man, that would be tricky here, since I don't
know how to create subdirectories on our
sites (anyone know how we can?)<P>You want a subdirectory called bigpanda,
off of your site (http://mysite.keenspace.com).
Then you put files there - icon.txt, icon.gif,
etc., for a bigpanda script to pick up.<P>------------------

Interesting trivia: I didn't notice the part about putting those files in a bigpanda subfolder, so I had just put them in my root folder (public_html or whatever it's called), and Big Panda picked them up from there too! Just in case that changes, I've done it the documented way now...<P><P>------------------

What's up with BP? Is Bryan getting back involved? I sent an email to Bryan last night because my site never updated from many months ago, and he actually wrote me back for the first time since when I joined at the beginning of the year. Within an hour I might add! He told me he was working on getting everyone a password who had not gotten one, but didn't give me a timetable when it would happen. I'll have to wait for the next update to get my url changed. I had previously given up and taken all references to BP off my site, but there's no doubt many people still use the site, especially the front page.<P>As for the folders, just create a "bigpanda" folder at the same level you have your "images" or any other folder. Use that faq for what's required. Pay attention to the sizes of the icons, I believe they have to exactly match pixel for pixel in order for them to get collected.<P>------------------

As a person in the back pages of BigPanda, I'm pretty pissed off that the people who lead the list don't even acknowledge that they're up there. I beg, beg, BEG people to get me higher on the list. It would help motivate me to draw more, for one thing. I realize that I may not have bigger problems than most people, but I hate to see people more popular than me griping about how they want to be more popular than they already are. I'm greatful for what little I have, I honestly think more fortunate people should have the same attitude.<P>.....<P>What were we talking about, again?<P>------------------

Nope... not there yet. I wrote in so that Bryan would remove one of my old (and now defunct) comic, but it's still up, and Guardian Angel isn't up yet either.<P>Bing<P><P>------------------
