Kipper templates

Why don't I make some prefab templates for Kipper? Hm? Huh? Eh? Huh? Hm?

Well, OK then!

Here's the first one: Plain Jane, a very simple template that should make it easy to see how Kipper works.

And another: Button Nose, a simple template that shows how to make graphic navigation buttons using CSS.

I speak from experience when I say that using CSS is better than plain image tags for this purpose (even if the CSS intimidates you a little, at first). One day, after you've accumulated hundreds and hundreds of webcomic pages, you'll want to redesign your site. Using CSS, you can wildly re-arrange your navigation buttons by editing just the one stylesheet document, without having to rebuild entire archives.

For those who care about such things, both templates validate with W3C's markup validation service. The CSS, too.
