Make the image file “egg-logo.png” easily acceptable by admin so it can be periodically changed. For events/holidays or users that make their custom Duck/quail logo.
Love this idea!

What about the 1 to 5 rating thing? I know people still comment numbers sometimes so even though I was never here when it was here I'm assuming it was something people liked.

A Drunk Duck LIKE button on the pages (which has been added to the suggestion list) would be better than a 1-5 rating. That way a user can quickly and easily say they like the page.
With a 1-5 Rating, if a comic maker gets anything lower than a 5 they will get angry and bitter. It also opens up for trolls to go and give comics they hate a 1 on every page. Ratings can be nasty business.

Also, when you hit the ‘quote’ button to quote someone, the /quote tag is spelled wrong (qoute). In case Hippy or Ozone don't already know o=

Ok is at all possible to increase the mb from 1 to 2 or 3mb?

That said, I think the current homepage is doing an awful lot right and I wouldn't want to see that lost. It makes much better use of its space than the homepages for ComicFury, Smackjeeves, Keenspot or Comic Genesis.
For me areas of improvement are more along the lines of formatting the information dynamically across a wide variety of screen sizes as well as supporting mobile technologies. For example, I think the amount and variety of thumbnails the Duck throws at you right now is great. But the information about the comic in the thumbnail is conveyed by mouseover. That works really well on PC but is incredibly awkward on a mobile phone. We should be using a stylesheet that makes that information available in some other way for people on mobiles (a twistie, maybe?).

I don't know what the Duck is like under the hood
So long as there's plenty of warning about the nature of it's contents, I'd like to see A rated comics be a little less sidelined.
Search feature in general is lame and useless. Should be updated or just removed.
If anyone wants to offer more input on this issue I'll be happy to add it to the list. The only ways I can think of that adult comics are ‘sidelined’ is that they're currently not allowed in the Top Ten or in the featured comics.

I think Drunk Duck can be extremely prude at times. :)
I don't have a problem with adult comics not showing up on the top10 or featured. DD doesn't want to be synonymous with porn. It's reasonable. But being forced to be logged in to access the comics can be a bit problematic at times.
I can't link to my adult comic on sites like “top web comics” for example, or any other webcomic listing, since guest users won't be able to read it and are not likely to bother with signing up just to read. As such I've had to see the Comic Fury version of my comic(which started as a mirror) as the official place that I can actually link and refer to as they don't have that login requirement.
I seem to remember that in the old days of DD a log in for adult comics was not required. Instead a warning popup was displayed informing the reader of the raunchy content. Click to confirm, and you can read away.
I know the login serves a purpose to keep the kiddies away, but let's not fool ourself that it in reality actually keeps the kiddies away. They just register and fake their age. Kids are smart like that.
Not showing adult comic thumbnails to not logged in users is a bit extreme and overprotective I think. I don't think I've seen any adult comic using naked naughty bits for their picture. (that should not be allowed) Again to mention Comic Fury, they display every comic titles thumbnails, adult and non adult, and has no limitations for adult comic whatsoever. And it works just fine.

What is a twistie?
The front page actually works fairly well for me on mobile - tapping on a thumbnail once brings up the mouseover comic info, and again takes me to the comic. Can anyone else chime in on how well this works on other mobile devices? I'm using an iPhone.

The login for A rated comics stuff isn't for prudishness, it's so we can have advertising.
