On the post below, some folks asked why I'd deleted the original #420 strip. I wasn't crazy about it, to be honest, so I took it back. Then I wasn't crazy about the second #420, either. For Betsy & Michael, here's the original 420. So now there are two #420s, equally not particularly liked by me. If marijuana was my drug of choice, I'd think it was a sign.
Update: Stephen Abram wrote a blog post at Stephen's Lighthouse about this strip--my response is in the post's comments

Just out of curiosity... why aren't all of the strips formatted like this (full width, not inside the scrollbar frame)? It's much easier to read, especially in my feed reader... Just thought there had to be a reason! :-)
Hmm. Good question. I grab the embed code from ToonDoo.com, where I make the strips. It's always necessitated scrolling. An update to their site, maybe? I wonder if tomorrow's (or whenever I manage to slap up another one) will also be full-width. I agree, much nicer.
Yeah, it looks like the older ones have the following style applied to the paragraph that contains the embedded comic (which constrains the size and forces the scrollbars to appear):
style='overflow: auto; padding-right: 5px; width: 400px; height: 340px;'
While the newer one just says
style=overflow:
Anyhow, I enjoy your comic (I'm an academic reference librarian) and will whether I have to scroll or not. :-)
Thanks!
I like this #420 better than the other #420.
