Hi, Mark...
I realized after I wrote yesterday, that my current new scans can't be offered here, but I upped one just now (with a note not to add it to the site) and all went well, so i guess the problem is solved.
Do you have any idea what caused it?

[MarkWarner]

I suspect it was to do with ads. Recently, Google introduced a horrible "anchor ad" which appeared fixed right at the bottom.

I hated it ... BUT the revenue was really excellent. I had a gut feeling it was the source of the issue, however searching I could find no one else experiencing problems. But I disabled it and am sure it is the culprit.

So although the site is poorer, it looks and works better Hoorah!

[freddyfly]

Two new very-partial Tip Tops tonight (St.John issues): 193 & 208!

[freddyfly]

...and it's still working perfectly!
The missing Dell Super Comics 10 & 13 now added.

Are issues after #29 ok to upload (with non-pd stuff omitted)?  The only one on the site is #34.

[freddyfly]

Well, I've added #30. All other issued are available

[freddyfly]

4 missing St.John's Fritzi Ritzes added - 43,44,50,55
All 'internet finds', all with Peanuts & Nancy stories removed.

[freddyfly]

I've added an issue of Pines' Etta Kett - #11. There was no section for it, so I added it to the main Better/Pines/etc section.
There were 4 issues, but only one more is scanned. Are they ok for the site?

How about Jiggs & Maggie comics - both Pines & Harvey?

If they're ok, could you create folders for all three?

[freddyfly]

anybody out there?

[The Australian Panther]

Re Jiggs and Maggie,
There are some 'bringing up father' in the Newspaper strip section.
https://comicbookplus.com/search/?q=Bringing%20up%20father#gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=Bringing%20up%20father&gsc.page=1
So they should be OK
But I'm no expert on copyright.
Cheers!

[freddyfly]

Thanks.
I might upload one and see what happens

[freddyfly]

Could someone create a section for Etta Kett under Better/Pines?
Also, for Jiggs and Maggie, both a Better/Pines section and a Harvey section?

[freddyfly]

I found the Jiggs&Maggie Nedor section & upped issue #15.
It was a bit tricky -- it didn't show up on the main comics page, I guess because it was empty, but it is in the drop-down list when I choose where to upload a file.

I also upped issue #25 - a Harvey issue (#s 22-27), but there was no sub-section, so it's in the main Harvey section.

I forgot to add a Harvey section but I have now. Thanks for the scans.

[freddyfly]

Thanks!
There's a bunch of these available.

If you want to add series details, for the Standard it's:
Issues: 11 |  Sequence: #11 - #21|  Dates: June 1949 - Feb 1952.

... and for the Harveys it's:
Issues: 6 |  Sequence: #22 - #27|  Dates: April 1953 - Feb-March 1954.

[freddyfly]

I've added a 2nd Harvey issue - #24, with 2 Little Dot paged removed.
No other Harvey scans are available.

[freddyfly]

All available Maggie & Jiggs comics now uploaded!

[freddyfly]

Hi,
I noticed the new bunch of Super Comics, so I upped my paperscan of #50, and #66.
All the rest are available. Is anyone else uploading them?

[freddyfly]

I decided to add 2 more Supers that needed conversion from cbr to cbz - 60 & 63. Dick & Annie dumped.

[freddyfly]

Hi,
Something was wrong with my Super Comics 63 upload, so I've just re-upped it.
Also, my own scan of #50 (to replace the fiche scan) doesn't show up, so I've reupped it too.

Also added #s 59, 61-2 and 64-5.

[movielover]

Okay,

I don't see a upload for 50.

Also, your upload of 57 was 60, and the uploads of 59, 61, 62, and 64 were of 65, and 65 appears to be a broken upload, so I've removed them all.

[freddyfly]

Ok, I'll do it all again.

I just retried my 'paper' #50 & #65.
#57 doesn't matter -- it's the same as Lyons' upload.

The mess is probably because I didn't select 'Add another' from the page that starts with "My dear, I have something important to say to you".
Instead, I used the browser Back button to go back to the upload page and changed the name of the file I was uploading. The mystery is that I did select a different file each time for uploading.

..............................

All are now re-upped (correctly, I hope).

[MarkWarner]

I'll have a look at stopping the back button doing that on the uploads. Something i hadn't thought of with the new version

[freddyfly]

Always happy to find a bug  :<)
I used the Back button because the series of uploads I was doing had the same description etc, so it was a bit easier than using Add Another.

[freddyfly]

and one more - Super #85.
Only 55 more issues to go!

[freddyfly]

Tonight, 5 more Supers - #58, 115 (last 52-pager & last Dell Tracy story) & the final three - 119-121 (119 had no Dick or Annie, so it's c2c!).
