Hi, I just registered only so I can complain about the Catbert changes you have introduced.
Just how many negative comments does it take to make you put this website back the way it was?
This is really a truly NEGATIVE HORRIBLE experience now.
It is Tediously Difficult to navigate, Slow to load, not at all fun like the original site.
The previous version was much faster to load too.
We ALL propose you should abandon trying to "PIMP UP" this site up and go back to basics
Please strip out ALL that boring Flash Nonsense and KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)
By the way the GIF generator you are using produces terrible quantisation noise in between the main lines, it looks like you are using MS Paint? Yeugh! Pittooie!

xD this one was kewl xD
btw, I like the new format, the colors, I remember b&w and the weekend one always had an "extra".
Haha! just thought something xD... really, I dont expect it to get completely animated, the static drawing with text over is really nice so we take our time to read it the way we want, but what about make those "GAAA!!!" and the "GRRRR!!!" shake a bit, and the head shrinking, it could be shown (from normal to shrinked in a loop), think about the stink eye shaking haha xD.
so, each step could be an animated gif!

If changing this format was a team effort, then DILBERT's world IS a reality. Get the Grown-up programmer back and let him fix the Dilbert site along with the Dilbert archive. I'm NOT HAPPY with this.

Hi, Thanks for the color.
May I suggest to increase the strip size ?
in B&W size was 600 x 202 px. Now it is 560 x 174. Sometimes it is difficult to understand the joke (for instance the 'stink eye' in May 21st strip).
If you reduced size to spare bandwidth due to color introduction, then I suggest you switch from gif to png.
For instance for May 23rd strip:
"size in bytes" "strip name" "format info"
39861 2920.strip.print.gif GIF image data, version 89a, 560 x 174
34438 2920.strip.print.png PNG image data, 560 x 174, 8-bit colormap, non-interlaced
27679 dilbert2006112680423.gif GIF image data, version 89a, 600 x 202
png was created from 2920.gif using gimp.
According http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngapbr.html compatibility of png is good.
Remark: I don't have adobe flash, thus I get pictures. Its fine!
Regards,
