Grey scale?

Post by Maxgoof »

Something I just noticed.

Starting with this strip:
http://nipandtuck.keenspace.com/d/20040407.html

Ralph has been using more and more gradiant color and grey in his strip. I noticed it especially today. Gives it a very nice look.

But my favorite strip of all time is this one:
http://nipandtuck.keenspace.com/d/20011218.html

That last panel just says it all.

You can say that again, but if you do, I'll slap ya. That last panel is just so good.

Can somebody tell me why I can see the pic for the first link but not the second one? Hitting "view page info" gives me some hooey about fixing my browser to send the referer string, whatever that means (I'm running NS 4.73 on Unix).

Ron, really hates the new keenspace anti-deep-linking policy if this is the result :(

It might have something to do with the type of image. The first has a .png file, the second a .gif.

I have to agree - that whole arc is just perfect.

And the strip following it is also a classic.

By the way - we saw the start of the Nip/Bee Bee relationship there, but we haven't seen anything on it for the longest of time. Are they supposedly still going out?

Both images worked here using Mozilla 1.6 for linux, though the second one took a few seconds to begin loading. Is NS 4.73 the most recent version for your OS, or are you using it for its better compatibility with older websites or something?

I gave up on the NS Communicator series for linux because it had a tendancy to occasionally freeze / crash on me. It had lots of good plugins though, and the mail function had some graphics capabilities the newer NS7 / Mozilla browsers lack. They were obsoleted by W3C, and Mozilla is pretty rigid about W3C standards.
