Over the past month or so, I’ve been working on a little something for all of you out there. I’ve been working on it from a secret place that only three people know of, and two of them are food delivery men.  I could write more words here, but at this point you probably just wanna know what it is that I’ve been doing.

I would like to introduce my new webcomic, Invisible Bread!

Woooooo!  I have a bunch of comics over there for you to see, so please head on over there and check them out!  I’ll be updating Invisible Bread every Tuesday and Thursday in addition to my usual LHT duties.

This is really exciting for me and I hope you guys like what you see over there!  If you like the comics, I would really appreciate it if you spread the word about the new site!  You can click the Facebook Like buttons or Stumble Upon buttons or anything at all!  If you want to send a letter to your grandmother to tell her about the site, please do, because that would be totally awesome of you.

Thanks everyone!  I hope you enjoy the comics!

April 1st, why do you always have to be such a crazy day?  Let us give you some back story.

So, on March 31st, we discovered we were having some billing issues with our hosting company.  Apparently, we were using way too much bandwidth!  That night, we figured out that if we removed all the images from the main pages, we could greatly reduce how much data we were transferring.  So at midnight on April 1st, we did what we had to do, which was to remove all the images and convert all our comics into ASCII art.

Exactly 24 hours after that moment, something amazing happened.  Instantly, all of our bandwidth issues were resolved and we didn’t have to worry about how much data we were transferring anymore!  It was so strange that it happened at the moment it was no longer April 1st, but we’re not complaining.

We’ve had some crazy stuff happen on April 1st in the past.  In 2008, we had a big fight and in 2009, someone let the bees out all over the site.  Even last year, we started up Right-Handed Toons, but came right back to LHT after the 24 hours of April 1st were up.  So weird!

After some fiddling, we think we found the perfect balance of bandwidth savings and general site readability.

Thanks for bearing with us!  It’s pretty painful to have to do this to you guys, but this is a whole lot better than getting an enormous hosting bill.
