    Welcome, New Readers

    Tuesday, April 03, 2007 - 02:02 PM

    Since the site launched in November, we've gained a few thousand new readers. And with all the new Unshelved readers dropping by these past few days (...you guys will like this strip, by the way), now is a good time to review some of the cool site features:

    For new readers, I've tried to put together a Welcome Page to introduce you to the strip. Check that out first.

    Then, when you're ready to start reading the archives, use the back/forward arrows in the blue box underneath the strip; or click the Archives button for a wider calendar selection; or click the Random button to jump randomly into the archives. (It's pretty fun.)

    The blue navigation bar also lets you purchase the original art for that day's strip with one click. Any strip that doesn't display the word "Purchased" is available for sale.

    After you've read through some of the archives, you may want to check out the Extras page, with a bunch of fun, additional stuff to see.

    And of course, at any time you can drop by the ol' Sheldon forum to talk about the day's strip or say hi to other readers from around the world.

    If you'd like to sign up for free delivery of the strip to your e-mail, use the yellow post-it note underneath the strip, or click Here.

    Prefer to get the strip by RSS? We have that, as well.

    Want to send a particular strip to a friend? Just type in their e-mail address in the grey napkin underneath that strip...and off it goes!

    And of course, down the line you'll want to pick up the Sheldon book collections at the Store. They make every reader 36.5% better looking, which is awesome.

    So welcome! Enjoy the strip! And help yourself to some lemonade!

    And if you have any questions or comments, drop me drop me a line personally. Thanks!

    1 GRAMP: Things were different when I was a boy
    ARTHUR (Thinking): Oh Lord. Here we go...
    GRAMP: You had coffee, and you had the mug to hold it.

    2 GRAMP: But now you have this throw-away cup that's so thin, you need a cardboard sleeve around it to protect you hand. Which is useless, 'cause hot coffee spurts out of the dang plastic lid, anyway. So they give you a starw to protect your lips, and a cardboard tray to save your hands. Add in the sales receipt, and that's six items for one cup of coffee.
