Widgets Galore

Everything’s different oh god what happened. I finally got sick of the comic navigation being off-center so I added some widgets to the left of the comic to balance things out. Now on the left is the link to my Patreon and two new widgets. Characters shows who is in the comic. If you’re on a computer, hovering over one will bring up info on each character. Otherwise, clicking will bring you to their (kind of ugly) archive page. Pretty neat. And a little quirky. I had to clear my cache before the images would appear, even on my phone. I haven’t had a chance to add a blurb on each yet, but soon. The second addition is some fast navigation now that the comic is split into chapters. First drop down will switch between chapters and the second to specific pages in each chapter. Of course, the archive page still exists (and was revamped a few weeks ago). Last but not least is a bookmark widget below the comic and above the navigation. Now that there are over 200 pages, anyone reading through the archives might want to save their place when they come back again. The twitter feed has been moved to the right of the comic. I hope I haven’t thrown anybody off too much with these changes, haha.

I noticed that it’s been about a month since I had seen any comments in my inbox, which corresponds to when I had some security issues with the site. After doing some detective work I found one simple check box was requiring a WP login to add a comment.
Well then.
It seems like my recent security upgrades were TOO good. Comments should be fixed now.

Mahananel… you not only tore the comic in half but you broke the site.
I’ve been informed that there are some security issues with the site and I’m currently working to get them resolved. You may have also noticed some new ads. One of the (not particularly effective) services I signed up for to try to get things fixed up also lets you set up ads. It’s never really been my goal to monetize the comic, but it would be nice to at least break even. Now I’m ending up spending MORE money with ANOTHER service through my host to see if they can clean up the site. I’m a bit more hopeful since they were the first to notify me there was a problem. But of course they would do nothing until I give them more money. (sigh) I may try the ad service once things are cleaned up, so don’t be alarmed if you see them again.
As always, I can be reached at northwindcomic@gmail.com or on twitter @nwcomic or leave a comment on the site!
*UPDATE*
As far as I know, this site is CLEEAAAAAAAAN. (/reference to movie probably older than most of my readers)
Stretch

Do it.
This is a reminder to get up out of your chair and move around, do some stretches, go get a drink of water and a snack. I like Havarti and tart apples. Don’t sit hunched over your drawing tablet for six hours like I did. I spent the entire day yesterday in so much pain I thought I was going to throw up. But by somehow twisting JUST SO and causing the loudest pop I’ve heard from my spine was I able to realign it without needing to see a doctor.
Take a break and take care of your body. It’s the only one you have. Until we perfect human cloning and we’re able to harvest backup parts. Then all bets are off.
And We’re Live Again!

I just finished getting the archive uploaded again. There are a few things broken on the site and you may see things changing as I work on those issues and aesthetics. Let me know if something is REALLY broken, though.
