A new web comic

[Specterbane]

Hey guys, I'd like some feed back on this comic I'm working on. It takes place long after FFI took place and there are lots of changes I've made for it. I hope you all enjoy it. The we URL is here (http://ffi-2.coconia.net/)

Thanks for any help you give me.

You need the standard navigation buttons. For an example, look here. (http://www.freewebs.com/fenrisw)

That is my comic, and if you look at the pages, you can see how it works.

But, I do like the use of MegaMan sprites.

just a future comic making suggestion. it concerns the color of the text. i think the colored text is a good idea. but, atleast in the "re-cap comic" i found the orange color to be hard to read..though, the funny thing is that in the normal comics, thief's text color seems fine..weird..

also, for the archive colors, i find it hard to read what comic it is unless i look closer at the screen. i reccomend either changing the background color to maybe white, orange, black, red, or maybe even green. besides, those colors would be more bright than gray. or you could change the URL text color to white or some light color that is easy on the eyes.

also, the navigation buttons are also a biggie.

besides that, great comic. i think youre doing a great job!

EDIT: again with the in-comic color combos. kinda minor but still good to look for. be careful that you dont put red text on ANY shade of red. its harder to see. and a good color combo to think of is always have light/dark combos. for example, make sure you have light text with a dark background behind it.

thats enough of my rambling for now..

Thanks for the advice guys, I'd still apriciate any more I can get. But do you guy's know a way to do the Navigation buttons dynamicaly in HTML? I don't know it very well, so I'm not sure i can describe it. Essentialy a way that would take the title of the comic page, say comic2, and then add one to it and goto that page, thus it would goto comic3. Then have a time when it reaches a certain point of the latest comic go to the home page. I think I could do it in C++ but like I said I'm not very good with HTML. If you guys don't know I'll just have to do it staticaly for each page, that seems to be the way it's mostly done from what I can see.

2 problems with that. A) You want to do it in HTML. That has to AT LEAST be done in Javascript, cause HTML is only for visual formatting. B) Even with Javascript, I can't remember if there's any way to do it without crazy coding, what would happen when you got to the latest comic? How would it know there wasn't a comic after it?

It's just something to consider. If you can figure out a javascript code to do that, be my guest. I never held with Javascript more than I HAD to, personally...the absolute ideal language for this is PHP, if your server supports it. If it does, don't go through the grief of coding it all yourself if you don't have to, use CUSP. http://cusp.sourceforge.net/

It's what 8-bit uses.


EDIT: Oh, and if those options are too much, or impossible, by all means code each button for each page. It's just more work in the long run.
