Title: NLG COMICS - trying to get 'em back.
Post by: shortrackskater on November 20, 2022, 10:01:46 AM: Hi
I'm aware the daily comics aren't displaying. The syndicate server for the comics is down. I tried changing to another but the sizes are off so they're either REALLY big or REALLY small.
I'm working on it! :propeller:

Yay!
At least one NLG member reads them!
Well I know Alan does too.

It definitely was not an easy effort finding another comic source. I have to change the entire URL each day as well as sizing differences between Peanuts and the others.
I'm hoping the old source's site returns eventually.

Today Garfield's punchline was exceptionally funny!

"DIP THEM IN ALFREDO SAUCE WITH SHREDDED MOZZARELLA, AND WE'LL TALK" :garfield:

The daily smile from NLG is a bright spot in my day.

The mix of comics is good.

My all time favorite comic was Calvin and Hobbs especially the ones with the Snowman.
When the author hung up his crayons - he released "The ultimate digest of Calvin and Hobbs" and that was it.
I still think there was a lot more that could still be done with that crew. I think they may still be published but they are all re-runs.

When Shultz passed (Peanuts) - his torch passed, and they keep coming. I think the signature in the bottom right of the panels is not his anymore but they are still "Peanuts by Charles M Shultz"
