[edit] Name of navigation bar
Is there some particular (canonical) reason we call it the "NavBar" instead of the "Navigation Bar" or "main_nav" (the filename)? — It's dot com 17:32, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Except for the fact that it's easier to write, I don't see any. seems like it's already spread around the wiki and several users call it that way. I searched left and wide, but the only canonical reference I found was in virus commentary when Mike say "...and there's little words at the bottom." Nothing else. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 17:50, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Something odd
I just noticed something rather odd. When you use "They Call Him Flipper" on Main Page 23 , everthing works normally, except on "Store", when the second Homestar says "Sup, man?", Homestar doesn't say "Sup" back. His mouth doesn't move or anything. Any ideas why this happens? - Exhibit A (talk · edits) 05:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, there were a lot of glitches with this feature. You can check them out on the main April Fool's 2006 page. --DorianGray 05:48, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Helscome to my Webdsite
Do the websites from website and 2 years belong here, or would that be too much? Bad Bad Guy 23:11, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "podcast" currently not in navbar
--Addict 2006 00:47, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Never mind. I read the article Podstar Runner. --Addict 2006 01:11, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Toons Menu
I just went to the old toons menu (tvguide) and it looks the same as the current menu. 69.56.98.237 05:23, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- tvguide.swf IS the current menu. --DorianGray
- I think that's the point he is trying to make. To 69.56.98.237: The reason that that menu is listed as a site component is because it has a different name, meaning that it isn't normally accessed on it's own. —Guard Duck talk 05:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, oh, I see... When normally accessed through the "Toons" button on the main page, it goes to "toons.html", not "tvguide.html", even though the files there are identical. --DorianGray 05:58, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Flipper Needs An Update
They Call Him Flipper's sbemail link goes to the Lappy page, which is not used anymore.
- The website does not normally use the feature. This was just an April Fool's Joke in 2006.
