Thanks Randall. I have a few broken links out there that I plan to fix tonight but I think we are just about there.
Aaron has taken over the "door pages" side of the development with some great ideas.
Doors on doors which really works for the series.

Another announcement.
Jean has accepted the Managers position we offered him so he will now be the primary manager in Keystone Rose and secondary in MidWorld.
Welcome Jean and thanks for the help.

Welcome, Jean! I couldn't think of someone better to have on staff.
A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One more thing...
The home page has changed a bit to not only accomodate more navigation pages (added a "more" door to it)
But Aaron also too the advice on making them look different.
Its very cool now--have a look www.thedarktower.org/doors

Those are really fun. Good show.
If I may make a usability suggestion, the font on the "About Us" door isn't the easiest to read at a glance. It does jump out at you eventually, but for something like that, it's good to have it as clear as possible right from the start. Could just be me and my eyes, though.
you're solid gold // i'll see you in hell
I think he wanted to make it look like the door was ooozing blood.

I kinda figured
Hee, that's cheery for the "About Us" section. I love it.
But yeah, like I said, maybe it's just my eyes. *shrug*

if there is a door marked "more", there should be a door to go back from that second screen: using browser button for that isn't very consistent.
but all the doors are so impressive!

This is gonna be so freakin' cool. Man.
Heh, that's Jean, always thinkin.' You rock.

Great suggestion Jean. I think that is probably necessary.

It's an honor to be managed by Jean! (a "not worthy" smiley would be excellent for an occaision like this)

Dang, there is another one.

it's a small nitpicky thing, but on the comic tower page it says "Their will also be a limited edition..." "their" should be "there" (says the girl who doesn't capitalize).
That's a good catch Ruki, thank you.
In this case, I can't take credit. That was a straight text copy from the article.
But I fixed it anyway

I added a small temporary link to the second portal page to return you to the first. I have some great ideas for what I want to do with those pages, but it is going to take a shit ton of work to pull it off. So in the meantime, I am getting the basic idea out there, and will make all of the final changes when everything is ready. I'm going to start taking my laptop with me to work so that I can design during my lunches, though, so it may not be too long.
I absolutely love to read that you all are so dedicated to this site. Thank you.
Me too. Thanks!

I've been clicking around a lot of various links today since I got back from a trip. You guys have really done a lot of work over the past week, and it really shows in the excellent end product. Great job!

Thanks Patrick.
I have updated a lot of the pages out there you guys.
-New page link buttons
-New fan art
-"back" and "next" buttons on collector pages
-Reviews by Blake on the comics page
-new posted news
If you guys have time I would love it if you clicked on some of the link pages and checked them out.
The "door" pages that portal into the site are being worked on for easy flow so the collectors door is not hooked up yet.

On the Current Newws page, there are a lot of hyperlinks that occur in the blank white areas of the page. When hovered over they say.Fist 2 chapters to Blaze (definite spoilers here)
When clicked upon, they have *http://http://stephenking*.com...........
and thus with 2 http's are recognized as intranet, not internet.
On the Comics page the header for Variants is spelled wrong (no E in the word, a's only).
Passed issues should be spelled Past.
I know there are misspelled words in the text from Liljas, but they are cut & paste form his site.
Dangit!!
Think sometimes my eyes cross out there.
Something about those two links are giving me fits. Thanks for the heads up Jerome
Ah...that must be one too many copies.

Noticed on the News page that the link for Duma Key to stephenkingnews is broken.
Also,
I think I might have mentioned this, but shouldn't the external links open up a new browser page, so that when closed, dt.com is still up?
They should, I thought I had them set up that way but there are a million little things. I will totally check into it though. Dora is home today and wants to learn how to do this so I will call her so she can have a look.
Thanks again on this Jerome.
