    Wow, congrats! And a new format to go with the anniversary, nice! Need a big push for the fundraiser, wish I still made the big bucks so I could send more of them to support the singular treasure that is DBD.

      Clean layout. A little wonky on the site manipulation, toon panels shrink up after commenting…and links to commenter websites disabled?

        Bizarre- on my computer, the strip shows up looking like a film strip about two inches wide.

      miss being able to read the cartoon…it is cut off at the op and bottom, and if I enlarge it the print is unreadable. I have no idea what the cartoon is saying…

    Very interesting.
    Kind of come hither-type pose. But, totally protected by the cart frame. You could try to wrastle her out of there, except those carts tip over easy and ruin the mood.

    Son-in-law drives a big rig, taking a load to Clearwater tonight, taking daughter and grand baby along for the ride, and she just sent me this, as they approach the Sunshine Skyway bridge, all done up in tribute to those who gave all…pretty awesome. file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/ab/11/B6024D8A-D22E-42CB-913A-E3A1650778D3/IMG_8789.jpg

    I had a traumatic experience with a shopping cart while at the store with my mother. That sort of thing, when you’re young, sticks with you. The store manager ended up calling the local FD and I wasn’t badly injured. After checking my ID and making sure I was over 21, the manager even gave me a discount on the beer we were buying.

    Operational question: How do I see the full pictures from previous days? I don’t get here every day and sometimes I’m out of pocket for multiple days. I’d hate to miss out on these.

      Yeah, same question; like you I don’t live on the web every day. Can find the ilustrations via the calendar on the right side, but they’re all shrunk.

    Appears to be some issues with the new format. I can’t get the whole panel to show, it cuts off the edges, and it’s pixelated

    Thanks to Cho Xiden for 'nuffin

    Review: Good clean new layout, except…… No full size or resizable ‘toon once you navigate beyond the current days’ opening image. At least that’s how it appears on silk browser on kindle. All ‘toon images beyond current, appear cropped to a square boundary, thus making the image unviewable. Might need some kind of expert web wrangling?

    For now, open image in new tab. go to the web address and delete the 140×140 text out of the web address. full size is still there in the archive, It is just not the default when you open the browser.

    Um… sorry, but I’ve gotta say, I’m not a fan of the new look so far. 🙁 Image issues aside, the font sizes are *much* too small, and the light-grey text on white background is *extremely* hard to read.

    (What is *with* this trend all over the web of *low-contrast* color schemes, anyway? Light-grey on white, dark-grey on black, and eveything in 8-point sans-serif fonts with single-pixel stroke widths…)

    Font sizes need to be at least 2px larger all the way around.

    Work in progress as CM has said. To be clear yes you can post a link (the one that didn’t work for me above was a jpg from the phone, that didn’t work). More organic to the design though is that the space at sign-in for commenters’ website is gone and without it when one hovers over and clicks on a user name it doesn’t hot-link anymore. Liked having that if that widget can be added back Chris?

    I have the size expanded to 170%, which makes the size OK on a large laptop screen. Higher contrast would be better, and the comment entry screen seems worse than the rest.

    The comic panel was OK when I first opened it, but when I went back 1 day it was tiny and cut off at top and bottom. Come back to this page, and now it’s also tiny and cut-off. Right-click on the picture and select “Open in New Tab”; that is also tiny and cut-off, with a URL ending in “-300×300.jpg”. Delete “-300×300” (removing the dash and leaving the dot) and it expands to full size with nothing cut off.

    So I can work around the problems, and can’t complain about a free site, but it looks like some programmer went to considerable work just to make the site harder to use…

    OK, the open in new tab and remove the size info works on Brave – for a few moments there I was afraid my daily fix was going to be effed up beyond repair. So I can be patient and wait for the fix over the next few days.

    However, the font size and color is not really a happy thing. Relatively small point size with gray on white is not happy for older eyes. Of course I can cope thought it would be interesting to see what it all looks like on the monitor of the person who created it. I am working on a 28″ Samsung hi-rez monitor and it really is not great for me.

    Anyway, thanks for the site and fortunately I can still contribute this year – despite SloJo’s continued destruction of the economy and all things American.

    Help! When I go from my daily E-mail to the actual panel, the picture shrinks to tiny and instead of being centered on the new screen it is crammed into the center top and has the top 1/3 of the toon cut off. I cannot resize or move the toon so I cannot follow the theme.

    How do I fix this…I am running windows 10

        I read a bit of the stuff in the article about the “study”. They’re claiming 3% of Americans own 50% of all the guns in America.

        I think they’re making a huge leap of faith in making that assertion. It may be that 3% of their respondents own 50% of the guns that were admitted to by their respondents, and they are then extrapolating from that. In reality, guns is one of those issues where “don’t ask, cause I won’t tell” seems to have been forgotten. Yes, the people they showed pictures of “showed and told”, as I’m sure a lot more did as well. However, I think more gun owners won’t show and tell than will, especially to some random person claiming they’re conducting a poll.

    I’m with a bunch of the others. Can’t see the panels. Todays’ was full size but chopped halfway through the second panel at the right edge. Going to the previous day now is clipped and shrunk at the top of the screen. ‘Course I’m still using win7 pro so what do I know… For me,the whole thing started with Saturday toon not even being available.
