Every strip so far, oldest first. All six are on this one page, about 75K of pictures, so on a modem give it a minute. Jump to one: |

The first one. I had Dig's line in panel four before I had a name for the strip. The banner across the top of panel two is 416 pixels wide, and the panel is 188, so you get UNDER CO and your imagination. That's about how it goes on most pages, too. |

NEW! has two frames, red with yellow letters and yellow with red letters, and he switches between them for as long as you leave the page open. The gray background is no background at all, the way pages looked before anybody found the tiles. The link is in plain blue, underlined, because NEW! always sits next to a link nobody has touched in years. |

The Mailbox has three frames: flag down, flag up with the door open, and a letter sticking out. On a home page he plays all three over and over, a letter arriving every second and a half, all day long. In the strip he only gets the letter when somebody actually writes. I wrote the chain letter myself. It took four minutes, which tells you something about chain letters. |

The Labor Day strip. worker.gif is four frames, and it loops about three and a half times a second, forever. globe.gif is twenty-four frames, a full turn every 2.4 seconds, also forever. I counted them one at a time, and I needed to sit down afterward, so I know how he feels. |

A confession: I reloaded my own front page eleven times while I was putting this one up, to watch my counter go up. You've done it too. It's fine. The Counter's digits are the gallery's, white on black, 16 by 24 pixels each, and in the strip he gets six of them, the same as everybody's. |

Cone's big moment, at four times his usual size. As of today Dig has 103 days to make good. I'd like to say I believe in him. |
