Serious Business

I've been sick. I got COVID again...

While it was probably the easiest time I've had with it, this time still kicked my ass. I was coughing so much it was difficult to catch my breath... I had body chills where I couldn't stop shaking for hours on end... let alone the general funk and brain fog it gives you.

I'm also thinking of changing to a twice a week update for 'Zombie Roomie' so I can also do two a week for 'Dam It!'.... but I'm not sure since that's effectively one more strip than I had been producing and some weeks that's been difficult to get back into that swing. I'll see how things feel... but I want to start publishing DI! strips soon.

New site!

I’ve spent hundreds of hours in November to make a new home for Zombie Roomie.

You’re on the newest, probably fastest version of the site to date. I’m not putting actual ads on the site and trying to keep the site as minimal as possible, but still have the stuff that I enjoy on a website.

I’m still fixing lots of issues like how the chapters and characters pages are pretty much useless– the chapters are in a random order and since I didn’t have thumbnails created for them it’s a bunch of blank squares. The characters are only slightly more useable… they at least give a link to the comics said character are in.

Starting with the reboot comics, strips are now 2000px across (if your resolution permits). If you’re on a smaller monitor or you only use part of one– I frequently do for things on a second monitor so I get it… it’ll scale to the width. If you’re using a really, really small resolution it’ll default to the mobile browser settings.

Oh, mobile browser you ask? Yes, with the reboot and going forward currently, the strips are cut into single panels so you can use mobile browsing for vertical scroll reading.

The legacy comics will be getting the vertical scroll and larger desktop reading treatment, but it takes me between five and ten minutes per comic on average to do the preparation for that… and there are 1562 comics in the archive, including some from ‘Woody After Hours’— I won’t be able to give the ‘Woody After Hours’ strips the same treatment as I don’t have access to high res versions of their strips.

I’m working with a M/W/F update schedule going forward.
