my first_day.gif , next_day.gif , previous_day.gif , and last_day.gif aren't showing up. I uploaded them into workspace/images, put tags around them on the pages, and updated my site, and they still aren't working. I don't have any comics up yet, is that it? Or am I doing something else wrong? Please help..

The workspace/images folder doesn't actually exist. It should be a link that leads to your public_html/images. Whether you see it as a link or as an actual folder depends on your ftp program. Just make sure that you name them all lowercase and when you have at least 2 comics they'll show up.<P>------------------

I *think* they need to go into your <i>public</i> images folder - did you create a workspace images folder?<P>Anyway, yes, they won't show up until there are comic pages to link to - where's your 'first day' going to lead to? If you look at other sites, you'll see that the very first comic only has a 'next' and 'current' - and the current day only has a 'previous' and 'first' - because the other cases don't make sense.<P>------------------
