Have you ever wanted to read GAIA's entire manga-style storyline from beginning to end without having to follow a bunch of misplaced links?
Did you have a tough time following or finding Gaia Online's manga archive?
Or are you like me, and just wanted a simplier interface with a different layout? Or perhaps you actually want to know the dates comics were posted?
If that's the case, then you've come to the right place. I have always wanted to read GAIA's beautiful manga storyline from beginning to end, all on one page, without having to hunt through the Gaia Community Discussion forum to see if I missed anything inbetween.
On your right is the T.O.C., or Table of Contents.
It lists each storyline so far. The images(2004, 2005, etc.) list what year the comic page was originally posted in. Under each year, are the seperate comic updates.
Note that, with the exception of "The Return of Gino", and comics from the year 2007 onward, I named all the storyline updates myself, so they may or may not be the same names you've been used to seeing in the forums or newsroom. It gets the point across, though.
Clicking any of the links will bring you to the first comic page of that storyline update. Under each page, there is a toolbar:
[ « ]
[ < ] |
[ > ]
[ » ]
[ « ] will take you to the first page of the current storyline update you are on. I.e. If you're on Christmas 2k4 page 6, clicking this would take you to Christmas 2k4 page 1. If you click this and the page refreshes, you are on the first page Gaia created.
[ < ] goes back one page. (if you're on page 3, it takes you to page 2)
[ > ] moves one page forward. (If on page 4, you go to page 5)
[ » ] will take you to the first page of the next storyline update. I.e. If you're on Christmas 2k4, you will go to April Fool's Day page 1. If you click this and the page refreshes, the next storyline hasn't been put up yet.
Conversely, on the righthand side, as already stated, is the TOC. If at any time you want to get back to this page, all you have to do is click the "T.O.C." image. Under the TOC image are two symbols:
goes back to the very first comic page Gaia created. If you click this and the page refreshes, you are already on Page 1.
goes to the most recent page Gaia came out with. The last page I have put onto the site. If you click this and it refreshes the page, you are on the last page already.
