On April Fool's Day 2006, The Brothers Chaps changed the site so that every toon was upside down.
Contents |
Fun Facts
Remarks
- The following pages / sites are exempt from the flipping because they are hosted separately from the main H*R content or are not Flash files:
- Seek bars do not work with the flipped toons.
Glitches
- Any time that a second Flash file is overlayed on the first (like the "What's New" button on the main page) it is not flipped. On Main Pages, at least, this was fixed shortly after the "feature's" release.
- Many of the rollover button effects on the Main Pages don't work.
- Several toons that are not the usual 550x400 resolution are not centred properly:
- virus
- Not the 100th Email!!!
- Handheld Games Menu
- Interestingly, flashback and Main Page 22 are both correct.
- Some pages have invisible or missing text:
- The Eject button on the Characters page (which normally makes Homsar's video come out of the VCR) does not work.
- The video clips in HomestarRunner.com PAY PLUS! repeat themselves automatically.
- The rando link on the navbar does not work.
- TROGDOR! doesn't load up properly - the game itself takes up only the bottom right quarter of the usual frame, and the rest is filled in with gray.
- On any Strong Bad Emails featuring the Tandy 400 or the Compy 386, the contrast buttons don't work. This includes the Easter eggs in gimmicks. The ripples on the Lappy 486 appear and disappear much faster than normal, and do not stay if the mouse button is held down.
- Peasant's Quest loads up in fullscreen. Additionally, Trogdor's voice doesen't work.
- All of the old flash from the "old flash" in the museum appear normal.
Real-World References
- The Flash file that causes the pages to be flipped contains the phrase "They call him Flipper", which is one of the lyrics to the Flipper theme song.
