Tuesday November 26th 2002 |
Longer interval than usual in updating the site; partly due to pressures
of the day job, partly due to getting a new computer:
anyway: updated the news page with info on
what Bryan's been up to recently. |
|
Wednesday October 23rd 2002 |
I have just added the artwork
emporium to the existing emporium.
Now you can buy original artwork directly from Bryan! .. and today
I even listed the Heart
of Empire CD-Rom on eBay! I also updated the bulletin
board page to show the fact that I have launched a Yahoo
Group for the fanpage. |
|
Saturday October 19th 2002 |
At last! Another ambition has been fulfilled! You can now buy the
Heart of Empire CD-Rom directly from this very site! - yes, the
Bryan Talbot fanpage Emporium of
Wondrous and Delightful Stuff has finally opened!
We will gradually offer a lot more stuff in the Emporium,
including original artwork, posters and comics: we had to launch
though with the labour of love that is the Heart of Empire CD-Rom.
You can pay via NoChex - for the Brits - and PayPal for those in
the US. If demand warrants I will add the ability to pay in Euros
too.

image into the same gallery and
therefore added a link from the existing Endless

is a large file so beware the download time!) |

Thursday July 18th 2002 |
Well: it's been almost a month since the last update but I think
I have got an excellent reason: not only have I gone through the
infinite horror of moving house, but I have also left the day job
from hell and returned to the joys of freelancing! - so: anyone
out there need a website
designed?! Or any internet
consultancy? Or computer
training?
In terms of updating the site, I have just added two new image
pages into thumbnail gallery fourteen:
the wizard and the Nazz
Speakeasy cover. Also completed the obligatory image
navigator page and text gallery
updates.

Bryan suggested that I add to the site a list of all of the complete
strips that are on it, and the strip
listing is the result. And as a result of adding that page, I
needed to update the stripography page, the
articles page, the pregallery
page, textgalleries 1, 2,
3, 4,
5, the image
guide page, and the site index |
|
Thursday April 25th 2002 |
Far too long without an update: that pesky real life in the form
of moving house and a day job from hell is getting in the way again......
Anyway, in a fit of guilt, I added a lot of news to the
news page, and added the Small
Press Expo flyer image and the Arkwright figurine production
image - version one
and version two - to
gallery thirteen, which of course
provoked an update of textgallery four
and the image navigator page.
Oh, and whilst in the innards of the site I edited gallery
twelve's homepage and added a link onto Dark Horse editions
covers page one.
Oh, and created a new wallpaper - at 800

by 768 rez - from the alien
pin-up page.

This also meant that the single
page that lists every image on the site had to be updated: I

Found the newsgroup posting through Google that showed
when I launched the site - in 1996! This fanpage has now
been going for six years! (by the way - that's an old address
for the site in the posting that no longer works, - neither does that
email address.) |

Completed the entire, online Memento
strip: 12 pages and 76 panels - each panel on its own webpage! |
