Added 2 new A* pages:Hey two pages! Now I gotta get some storyboards done, finally.
 
I was excited a little while back about the new Firefox 4, being all fast and stuff, and I still like it and it's my main browser, and/but in using it, I noticed a few things it does differently than Firefox 3 that slightly inconvenienced my online lifestyle! OMG rage! :D
 
The first one actually forced me to learn how to do something for the site the right way, namely managing server HTTP cache control correctly; I had a popular hack in there instead, which worked find in FF3, but I found that 4 wasn't always delivering the most up-to-date version of the front page after I posted a comic or news article. So I had to learn how to do that the technically right way.
 
The second thing is that now when you go to upload a file--like I upload the A* comics not only to this site, but also to mirrors on DrunkDuck, Smack Jeeves, and ComicFury--the browser stores the last directory you uploaded from to that site and starts you there, which would be great, except that I upload from two separate directories each day, since I also upload my daily Sketchy comic to those sites as well.
 
Waaah! Well probably nothing will happen and I'll just have to suck it up and live with it, but I did at least enter "Questions" about those two things in Mozilla's uh support database thingy, here and here, and I guess in theory maybe if enough people have the same problem, they'll take it under consideration or something, I dunno. In any case I at least got them documented all official-like. :P
