17th of December, 1999The Dragon Tails film reviews begin with a review of Pokemon : The first movie.
21st of October, 1999Updated the Links section. Added/expanded link categories to include comic index's - sites that host lists of comics.
16th of October, 1999Updated the Links section.
28th of September, 1999This site has been selected to be listed in the Greatest 100 web sites! I've added it to my awards section.
23rd of September, 1999Banners added to the comic archives. A new way of making the archive pages has been implemented. If you have any problems with them, please report it! Enigma's FAQ updated. There seems to be some confusion resulting from the PBS television show 'Dragon Tales'. I'm not them, and have no association. (which means I can't sell you tapes of the episodes) Appreciation Buttons added to the Links page. If you have a page and want to link to me, it's a great way to do so! Remember, the message board is open to all, so if you've got any questions or queries, feel free to raise them there.
17th of September, 1999Pay Banner Ad's added to the site. I'm not too keen on having to do this, but it was something I've been planning. Basically, I'm hoping to cover the costs of hosting this page, but of course, anything left over would be nice. Just as a warning, I'm planning to add banners to the archives as well, which I don't see as unreasonable, as it looks like all comic sites these days support themselves with advertising. Finally, if you are having any problems with the new banners, or even find specific adverts irritating, be sure to give me an EMail.
16th of September, 1999Tweaked the Main page for better navigation ('featured sections' now listed on the left of the menu) Message board link added to nav bar and general HTML repair Comics corresponding to the moon rocket missions added to Bluey's Inventions for those that didn't see them at the time. (look for the link under the name of each rocket) Note - The entry about 'The Cosmic Peanut' (aka Moon Rocket Mk IV) was added to Bluey's Inventions some time previously.
15th of September, 1999A very long over-due news update! Sorry, guess I've been a bit slack! ***MOST IMPORTANT NEWS*** Dragon Tails has finally got it's own domain name, www.Dragon-Tails.com!! Some of you have known it's been in the works, and no thanks to my useless ISP (If you live in South Australia, I would advise against signing up with Chariot, they are really useless) I've finally got it all sorted out. The new domain name is better, bigger and hopefully much faster for many people out there, and gives me a new EMail address, t.dawson@dragon-tails.com. (my old one still works BTW) This also means you can expect some more interesting 'projects' coming up in future. The Message board is finally set up. Another big announcement, I don't know what to expect from this, but I hope it goes well. Please check it out, and post your opinion on the message board itself if nothing else. It looks silly with no messages!! If anyone has any problems with the new domain, the message board (probably still got a few bugs in it, I had to edit the scripts myself) or finds any glitches in the pages, please let me know! Thanks!
25th of August, 1999Updated Bluey's Inventions, adding the full 'story' of the Moon Rocket Mk3 Ver2. To everyone's who's sent me EMail lately, and those that have taken the time to sign the guestbook, I just want to say 'thanks!' It really means a great deal to me! While I was intending to use the message board to do this, while I'm waiting, please feel free to EMail me with suggestions and ideas about how I can improve Dragon Tails! What kind of things would you like to see? What would encourage you or your friends to come back more often? Would you be interested in a monthly Dragon Tails newsletter? (I'm going to take a poll on this later, actually) How about a smarter page design?
18th of August, 1999Made a new title graphic and intro graphic (intro graphic on the re-direct page) using the new Dragon Tails font. Any feedback's appreciated, BTW. [note from the 15/9 - The redirect page will cease to exist soon. Make sure you're using www.Dragon-Tails.com instead] Fixed links in this News page. (those pointing to pages that no longer exist or have been renamed etc) Expect a lot of changes happening soon as well as quite a few new graphics and page redesigns, and maybe a few more downloads. The message board's still not ready, I'm afraid - it will be one of the 'changes' happening soon.
1th of August, 1999Today I had to remove an entry from my guestbook. I felt "you suck" x 50 wasn't particularly constructive. Just as a point of interest, I have no problem with criticism or any complaints you have with my page, but I will require a sensible entry if you want it to remain. (Similarly, if any entries contain swear words, they'll be censored or removed)
4th of August, 1999Changed the layout of the page slightly - redid existing pages. This is so the new message board (coming soon) will fit in nicely. Currently I'm having trouble implementing it due to my ISP.
18th of July, 1999Updated Enigma's FAQ. Added Moon Rocket Mk3 ver2 to Bluey's Inventions.
11th of July, 1999Added a new sub-page called Enigma's FAQ where Enigma will answer any queries.
28th of June, 1999Sorry 'bout missing a comic out on the 25th, but I had loads of Uni work that day, and didn't get home with enough time to make it. (plus I was stuffed!) Gone through the News page, and added links to recent news updates. (yeah, a couple of people have been asking for it) Plus I've fixed up a couple of spelling errors!! Added the first Dragon Tails video!!! Find it over at the Downloads page. Its a whopping 7 megs, but it goes for a minute and has speech. Finally, everyone who's been too slack to DLoad the theme can hear what Enigma sounds like. :) Look out, because coming soon will be a whole new Dragon Tails video experience!!!
17th of June, 1999Updated Bluey's Inventions to include the fate that befell the Moon Rocket Mk3.
16th of June, 1999Ok, we all know I took far too long to get around to it, but I finally got enough time to add forward and back buttons to the comic archive. Are you happy now, Paul Molyneux? Anyway, I didn't originally put it in as it is going to mean more work for me. But since there seems to be a request for it... *sigh* I meant to do these both together, but its currently midnight here, so this can wait till later, but I'm about to start taking input for the next Dragon Tails theme! If you want to get in early, (I'm going to put stuff on the main page about it) drop me an EMail or sign the guestbook saying what YOU want to see in it! A focus on Bluey and his inventions? Perhaps more Enigma? Any suggestions will be appreciated.
2nd of June, 1999Well, I realised I'd have to start doing this, and so it begins. I'm only keeping comics from the last three months, although this length is going to shorten as I 'flush out' the non-daily archives. Basically, I can't store old comics forever, so the old ones will be taken off as the new ones come in.
29th of May, 1999Added a page about Bluey's inventions! You can find it under "Dragon Adventures"
24th of May, 1999(Re)Added the "Comic Archive" and the "Characters"sections.
23rd of May, 1999Overhauled the whole site to better work with the new 'daily comic' format. Too many changes to list here, go have a look for yourself. :) Currently the archived comics and the character descriptions are unavailable, but they'll be back tomorrow.
22nd of May, 1999Here we go - starting from today the Dragon Tails Comic Strip is now a daily strip! Be sure to call back every day to see their latest antics, or I'll become terribly depressed and shut down the site... (um, no pressure or anything...) Added another Dragon Tails Tale, called "Making Tracks", to "Dragon Adventures"
18th of May, 1999The poll is over, and despite the low number of people who voted, I've decided to update the Dragon Tails Comic Strip daily, starting from this Saturday. (that's the 22nd of May)
17th of May, 1999Joined the Cartoonist webring. The console is on the bottom of the main page.
15th of May, 1999Its my birthday today. And before you ask, YES, it IS news worthy of an update in here. In other 'news', my friends got me a fluffy Pikachu toy for my birthday, so big thanks to them!! As requested, this is thanks to Greg Nield, Scott Comrie and Jess Van Beurden (in case you're now wondering, I've just turned 18)

22nd of April, 1999Greg Nield informs me that "...your 'whats new' section is s##t boring id perfy [sic] to watch paint dry" Yet fails to offer any useful suggestions. Remember Greg, I know where you live.
17th of April, 1999fixed bug in the archived Dragon Tails Comic Strips which stopped the title, background and menu items loading. (Whoops! / looks so much like \, doesn't it?)
15th of April, 1999Tweaked and altered the Dragon Tails Comic Strip page so that browsers don't cache and old strip and fail to show the new one. Added web pages for the old strips to make it easier to navigate.
