I've been putting it off because I want to make my about page really thorough but you're right, I should put <em>something</em> down. I'll try to get something up this week. Agreed.

If you added a merch store then i'd buy one, guaranteed!

I believe this is probably the most commonly used item on any web comic page, so placing it is a little more prominent place (and not in a separate box than the strip) would possibly be a good idea. :-) Having said that, let me add that your comic immediately made it into the web comics I visit daily (and these are only a select few).

I never thought about banners and wallpaper. Guess I'll have to figure out how to make those. The Bug logo used to be clickable but I somehow disabled that ability when I set up the Project Wonderful ads. I'll eventually fix it. Thanks for the feedback!

Contact (but it seems like that could be on the About you page) One other little thing- Not quite menu bar suggestion per se, but I like being able to click on a site's name/logo picture to get back to the home page from a given specific page, so if Bug up there on the left was clickable that'd be awesome.
