Occasionally, the Main Pages can produce some odd glitches by clicking and holding down a button, and then dragging off them. This is due to the limits of the Macromedia Flash software. Specifically, any image or animation that only appears while the cursor stays over a button remains if you click the left mouse button and hold it down, then drag the cursor away from the Main Page button, and let go.
This is a list of oddities and inconsistencies in the Main Pages caused by this glitch. In the list below, "&" is used if it doesn't matter which is done first and "→" if they must be done in order.
Glitches
| Main Page | Glitch | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Main Page 1 | Toons & Store | The dots connecting the Marzipan constellation appear over the top of the rocket. |
| Main Page 2 | Store → anything | The rain falls behind the objects. |
| Main Page 3 | Downloads → Email | When Homestar's head falls back, the glasses don't move with him. |
| Main Page 4 | Characters → Toons | The pins on the far left turn back to white. |
| Characters → Games | The Games animation and its sound effects don't play. | |
| Toons or Games → Characters | The bowling balls disappear. Strangely, this does not work with Email. | |
| Games → Characters | The pins reappear. | |
| Main Page 5 | Games → Store | The waffle iron quickly changes from having no batter to being covered with batter. It also quickly changes from completely open to stuck half open. The reverse happens if you do Store first. |
| Main Page 6 | Toons & Downloads | Homestar holds two harps. |
| Main Page 8 | Characters & Downloads | Homestar's star falls back, but there's no wind. |
| Downloads & Store | Homestar's star flies AGAINST the wind. | |
| Store → Characters | When you move the mouse off Characters, the clouds on the screen get speed lines below them, even though they're moving down. The newly created clouds coming in the top of the screen are correct, though. | |
| Main Page 9 | Characters → Email | When the paper football goes by, the word KISS appears in front of the football, not behind it. |
| Store → Email | When the paper football goes by, it flies behind the sticky note. | |
| Downloads → anything | Not really an oddity, but Homestar's head speaks properly even when elevated. | |
| Main Page 10 | Store → anything | Again, not really an oddity, but Homestar's head speaks properly backwards. |
| Store → Downloads | Homestar eats the bomb when not facing it. When the bomb blows up in Homestar, the puff of smoke comes out from the back of his head. | |
| Store → Store | Homestar's head moves back into position... a little bit behind where it should be. | |
| Store → Characters | A soup can flies out of the back of Homestar's head. | |
| Main Page 11 | Downloads → Store | Strong Bad appears in front of Homestar's landscape. |
| Downloads & Email | The Homestar Runner logo appears over Strong Bad's weather map. | |
| Downloads & Toons | Homestar's name appears over Strong Bad! | |
| Main Page 13 | Characters & Email | Two Strong Bads! (This doesn't require click-and-drag, though that makes it easier.) |
| Main Page 14 | Store → Games (move the cursor off Games without the click-and-drag method) | The water turns off, but it's still foggy. |
| Characters & Games or Store | Two streams of water. | |
| Downloads & Store | Homestar apparently writes "Lemke" through the shower curtain. | |
| Email → Downloads (move the cursor off Downloads without the click-and-drag method) | The towel is on, but the pixels are visible around the edges. | |
| Main Page 15 | Downloads → Email | PbtC Strong Bad can be heard over The Cheat and Strong Bad's conversation. |
| Store | Oddly, click-and-drag doesn't work on the "sun" effect on the button. (This is an "odd because it's not that odd" sort of thing.) | |
| Main Page 16 | Store → Toons | The effect of Toons doesn't happen. |
| Store & Email | The snow that falls on Homestar is still bright, though the snow in the background is dimmed. | |
| Email → Games | You can see Homestar knocked back by the snowball behind the pile of snow. His eyes, however, don't move. | |
| Over and off Email quickly | Homestar says "Email" quietly without the snow covering him. | |
| Main Page 17 | Store → Email | 1-Up's hair disappears as the screen turns to black-and-white, and then reappears. |
| Store → anything except Email | Part of 1-Up's hat is briefly visible through his hair. | |
| Main Page 22 | Downloads → anything | You might not be able to see the buttons or their effects after the screen blanks, but you can still hear them. |
| Downloads → Store | You can still see Homestar's head near the "Edgar" pop-up. | |
| Downloads & Email | You can see the HTML hole and virus'd Strong Bad near the Edgar popup as well. | |
| Homsar Main Page | Email → Characters or Downloads | The dinosaur/boat never appears. |
| Games → anything | The top of Homsar's head and his hat appear from behind the Heavy Lourde he's supposedly crushed underneath. | |
| Games | Not really an oddity, but if you roll on games and roll off before the Heavy Lourde falls, the sound can be heard but Homsar won't be crushed. Also, his hat will temporarily disappear. | |
| Strong Bad's Room Main Page | Email → Characters | The poster immediately flips back down - only really notable because it still curls up if you go the other way. |
| Characters → Email | The poster turns dark for a moment before curling up. | |
| Luau Main Page | Characters → anything | Homestar's flame remains, but his head turns pale. |
| Characters → Characters | The flame disappears, but Homestar's head turns dark anyway. | |
| Characters → Downloads | Homestar's Head falls off, but the flame stays. |
