Hey, y'all.

I've had numerous requests for link banners. Here they are:

The full paths and file names are:
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... onance.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... ctTape.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... oxtrot.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... tBrass.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... bThree.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... geball.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... odNews.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... eOfGod.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... Crater.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... cience.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... herEye.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... hetics.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... 2Wrath.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... Scorch.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... erkill.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... sHummm.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... TheFun.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... nHands.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... dPills.gif
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/ ... Galaxy.gif

Feel free to deep link these (assuming you're using them one-at-a-time). Don't bother copying them to your own host. They're each less than 5k, and some are less than 3k.

--Howard

And here is the rotating banner javascript, for you script-kiddies.

(A big thanks to DarthParadox, Raif, and Erik on the IRC channel!)
Quote:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
document.write('<a href=http://www.schlockmercenary.com><img src="http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/Bnr' + Math.floor(Math.random()*21) + '.gif width=486 height=60 border=0></a>');
//-->
</script>
<NOSCRIPT>
<A HREF=http://www.schlockmercenary.com><IMG SRC=http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/SchlockQuoteBanner-TravelTheGalaxy.gif></A>


Just paste that into your web-pages, and you'll get a fresh new banner on each reload. W00t!

Its not extortion if they pay you before you get a chance to properly extort them

Yup. Keep 'em coming. I want to hear your favorites.

(note: you misquoted that one. The penultimate word is "threaten," not "extort.")

Time to test this obnoxious thing out. ;)

I'd suggest a quote like "In the end we all die. You decide who dies first."

So, no JavaScript in signatures? Makes sense; there's just too much opportunity for abuse.

How about:
"Judging from the sounds of general panic, I want a gun like that!"

And perhaps a condensed version of the "unnessesary violence" exchange from here:

"Guys, c'mere. This is funny." It works on so many levels!

Okay, two levels. That's still plural levels.

"This 'bright side' of yours is gloomy and smells funny."

Hey, I'm at work right now, so I can't really go looking at webcomics (at least, not when I think I could get caught), I can only just get away with the message board.

Oh, and another good line:
"Always make a backup copy of yourself before opening fire."

I'll find the strip and edit in the link after I get home.

EDIT: There we go.

Ouch. That javascript totally wrecks my page layout and validation. I'm going to write a server side rotator sometime here for my page. :)
Code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
document.write('<a href=http://www.schlockmercenary.com><img src="http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/Bnr' + Math.floor(Math.random()*21) + '.gif" width="486" height="60" border="0" alt="Schlock Mercenary" /></a>');
//-->
</script>
<object>
<noscript>
<a href="http://www.schlockmercenary.com">
<img src="http://www.schlockmercenary.com/images/SchlockQuoteBanner-TravelTheGalaxy.gif" alt="Schlock Mercenary" /></a>
</noscript> </object>


Here's a few bug fixes. It fixes all validation problems. Yay. You may want to strip off the /'s from the /> if you are not using xhtml, other than that it should work in old html 4.0 as well.

Schlock eats it.

They are the product of the hopelessly adolescent imagination of a sick, twisted cartoonist.

I'm fresh out of painkillers, Captain.

I've never seen a toilet spit that far before.

How many zeros do you think you'll need to express your gratitude?

You want I should start shooting these things out sir?

Explosive decompression sucks.

Its one my site http://www.netsllc.net/users/mseve

Thanks ever so much for the encouragment to follow my dreams, and start my own comic. But it will be quite a while before I have time to start one. as I just started working on my undergraduate degree.

Keep on Schlocking.....

your right pi, seeing those banners gives me the sudden urge to make my own web sight.... sadly i am a privet person, so it cant be a me page, my art sucks worse than explosive decompression, so it can't be comic, no one realy wants to look through pictures of someon elses collections, and being a conservetive pritty much eliminates me from the blog circles, my spelling/grammer/punktuation 'creativity' anialates online noveling.... hmmm... pictures, of grass growing? maby my bed, which i should be using....

Oops. Premature posting. Pardon moi.

I like all the Seven Habits. Truly excellent banner-ad material.

And another one from the very first strip, paraphrased:

"We don't do interspeciated workplaces. We do hurting people and breaking things."
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20000612.html

Damn, I love this comic. :D

I think you'd be suprised how many authors aren't the best at spelling.

Anyway, my favourite comic is probably the plan C one, not really all that quotable though.

How about some of the footnotes? I think a couple of them have good jokes in.

You know Howard Taylor? Cool, when do the rest of us meet him, I'm sure our esteemed author would like to meet the twin who misspelled his last name at some point as well!
