I hope I'm not too off-topic, but where are all the news posts from before about 2002?

If I had to guess, probably scattered across text files on Tycho's hard drive.

More seriously, they're somewhere because they put a few of them in the books that covered the pre-2002 era. But I don't think they've ever been online with the current version of the site.

I Know A Guy (2007-08-08) is displaying the same comic as Potent Yet Troubling Imagery (2007-08-06).

DarkPrimus · September 2008

Two comics on one page, what a bargin

EvilBadman · September 2008

Todays newspost (10/1/08) links to the comic posted one year ago. Here's the link to the correct comic: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/10/1/

This comic is skipped in the archives: http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2001/20010309h.jpg

Älphämönkëy · November 2008

Got it. I'll start looking around for the originals on these.

Thanks guys!

Quid · November 2008

Not broken, but http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/3/30/ has two comics on it. Unless it's supposed to be like that.

http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/10/26/ <-- Redirect Loop: Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. Same deal for IE7.

Opera has a lot of trouble reading the images on this site.
Here's a screenshot of the engarblement.

That happens for me too, occasionally. Reloading the image (or opening the image alone in a new tab) usually fixes it.

garaden · December 2008

Clearing the cache worked, but it's still kind of strange. I've never seen it happen on any other site/browser. Especially because refreshing doesn't seem to work. Oh well.

Still an issue... this one's got a podcast about it, probably gets a little higher traffic....

Tofystedeth · March 2009

As was mentioned before, Please Don't Read This, Mom (11/28/03) is missing. I have the highres version hosted on my photobucket from when I dled (almost) all of the PA comics for my screensaver.

Also missing is 2004/01/09 which I also managed to snag.

I did not manage to get the one from January 08 which a lot of people have reported. Hope these help you some Alpha.

ummmm. No I didn't.

That would be silly.

Stupid Photobucket's little popdown URL thing is sometimes tricky to work right on my computer.

Joey765 · March 2009

This comic (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/8/8/) has the same image as this comic (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/8/6/).

This comic (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/01/18/) is broken for me.

I changed the database entries, but now it looks somewhat odd. I'll take a look at it later after I fix the low hanging fruit.

Both comics link to this news post: http://www.penny-arcade.com/2007/11/28/, but the second comic's news post should be this one: http://www.penny-arcade.com/2007/11/30/

Fixed! Thanks gtrmp!

Here we are.

The 'next' link at http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/5/4/ leads to http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/5/6/, when it should link to http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/5/5/ as far as I can guess. This page does not exist.

It should have the image http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2005/20050505h.jpg or http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2005/20050505l.jpg on it, though.

Actually, this is correct. We release in "issues" on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Comics and newposts are split into those "issues." As an example, a post on 2005/5/6 will be in the 2005/5/4 issue.

http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/9/18/ has an error in the title. It seems like the second TM should be superscript, but it's broken for me. Xubuntu, Firefox.

EDIT: Broken on XP Firefox too.

This is not fixed. This has to do with the security settings on that field (HTML is stripped out)

I'll take a look at this one later.
