<B>I appreciate all the work Chris Chobotor and the rest of you have done to cross-promote Keenspace comics, but is the "Keenspace Newsbox" logo graphic really neccesary? Not only does the box rarely feature actual "news," but it takes up quite a bit of extra space, and many sites already have some sort of title header for it in place. I would advise you to either remove it or make it signifigantly smaller.<P></B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Well, its purpose WAS to display news, but no one really uses it for that. I just put that there to indicate what it was. If it really does make such a difference, I guess I'll remove it.<P>Also, anyone else feeling the effects of it already? I seem to be raking in the pageviews.------------------

Boy have I been out of the loop! Guess I should start reading the message boards and those emails from the email group. I was not aware that the Keenspace newsbox was now shown on the Keenspot front page. I just went to the page and the newsbox had my comic's profile up! Hmm, guess that means i should actually get back to working on it.

Uh, just so everyone knows, you have to actually sign up for the newsbox before telling me what your first comic is.<P>------------------
