		+	Yes the template is ''huge'', and while it would not be appropriate to place this in every single page it links to, it is a more compactly organized list of all toons compared to [[Toons]] or its related category(-ies). Instead this could be some stand-alone page easily accessible from some (yet to be determined) appropriate page or shortcut. Better yet, we could hide the hugeness with a WP [[Wikipedia:Template:Navbox/core\|navbox]]-style "show/hide" tab (assuming the right CSS is added) and still use it as a navbox. The current font is huge and a smaller one could be used to make it more manageable. With this, I could easily make a marathon non-sbe toon watch in less than a day! --[[User:Stux\|Stux]] 02:07, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
