  1. You can do it! And for what it’s worth, the site already looks pretty slick on my phone here.

  2. Are you going to just reupload every comic in order every day, with some extra commentary like Girls with Slingshots, Octopus Pie, Guilded Age and other webcomics have done or will it be all at one time once any bugs or other issues are ironed out.

  3. Change can be a good thing. Question though. Will you be bringing mousetrapped back and put it on this new server?

  4. I like the new design Mr. Milholland. I’ve been reading your comic since 2007. Always enjoy your content.

  5. Take your time! Your fans will be here! (Even if we’ve never interacted before… 😅. The comment section makes it easy)

  6. You’re a decent person, funny, hard working, and compassionate. Please be those things to yourself and not just everyone around you. Your readers know your quality and will be here when you get things sorted.

  7. I have patience for many things, and artists who put cool things into the world for me to see and largely asking nothing in return are absolutely one of them!

    New site is looking great so far! Do your thing and take care of yourself!

  8. You’ll get there! Server moves can be such a pain. And we’ll be waiting excitedly when you get it all up and running.

  9. I’ve been following S*P for nearly 23 years now, I’m happy to wait as long as it takes. You’ve got this, through all the years you’ve always persevered through everything. It may not mean much, but this old fart in Australia believes in you

  10. Breathe. You’ve generated an incredibly patient and empathic audience. You’re beating yourself up a lot more than we are. 🙂

    And if you are receiving any messages from folks not like that, they are poopyheads.

  11. I’m glad comments allow me to say: i’ve been reading S*P for 13 years, and i’m endlessly patient! The new site looks great.

  12. Site seems to be working, so I’d say you’re doing as best you can. No worries! Thank you for your efforts!

  13. Breathe 🙂 The site is up, and wow – comments! Take your time, and please be kind to yourself.

  14. One step at a time, Randy. I hope the new server will make life easier for you once the transfer is done.

  15. Hope the move goes well! Looking forward to reading your great comics again when the move is done.

  16. Hope things calm down a bit for you soon. Will say the new site format works even better on mobile than the old one, especially for scrolling through recent comics if I’m having a bad brain day trying to remember what happened recently.

  17. Tech updates come for us all eventually. Hopefully this buys a decade before needing to happen again.

    1. I’ve been reading since near the beginning. It looks awesome! Good luck and hang in there. If any images get corrupted, last I checked archive.org had 99% of the site cached.

  18. If it helps, you just created an image that system administrators will use regularly for the next decade. Immortality is yours.

  19. Created an account(thought I needed to, I think I’m wrong now, oh well) just to say you’re doing great. Keep up when you can. We’re here for you too.

  20. Been reading you since the early 2000s. Don’t stress (good luck getting your brain to cooperate with that). You are loved.
