Physics in 10 Easy Steps: Part 2

I'm going to point you all up to the shiny new VOTE! link at the top of the page. For those of you not familiar with this, basically, each IP address is allowed to vote for a comic once per day. The number of votes are tallied and webcomics listed in an order starting with the ones with the highest number of votes. What's the point? By voting, you increase this comic's rank, allowing more people to find it and (hopefully) enjoy it. It's a very simple way to support the comic (and help it gain readership beyond friends who I link to it every update.) What's more, if interest proves stong enough, I'll start offering bonus comics if certain vote levels are reached, as a way of saying "thank you" to all of you.
Sorry again for the slightly late update (I say as though any of you are waiting for the clock to hit midnight EST so you can see the new comic. I was hosting a Halloween party which just ended, and as I don't have automatic updating up yet, the comic had to wait a few hours until now. At least I'm not like those other slackers who promise new comics and then will go weeks with only the occasional "blarg, I'm still alive, kinda." post.
As for the party, I naturally had the best costume, as previewed in comic 23, the Pi-rate. My friend Christina came pretty close with her Pirate Wench costume.
The Pi-rate is hanging out with a pair of ninjas. While many may imagine that ninjas and pi-rates are mortal enemies, this is something that only applies between nanjas and pirates, not pi-rates.
While I naturally had the best costume, Christina clearly won the award for both "hottest costume" as well as "most elaborate costume."

I hope you all enjoy the Halloween themed comic today. Wednesday will resume the series started last Wednesday, "How to be a Physics Undergraduate in 10 Easy Steps."
In general site news, I now have the "About" link at the top of the page working. The rest of them can't possibly be far off, so stay tuned.

Sorry for the somewhat late update. Two physics tests and a philosophy paper this week do not a regularly scheduled update make. Thanks to the timing of that with X-Prize Cup last week, I was caught unprepared. The good news for you all is that I currently have the rough sketch of no fewer than 4 more comics done as we speak, and by the end of the weekend, all those should be inked, giving me a buffer with which to make sure I get regular updates to you.
Hopefully you'll all notice that I inked this comic. I also spent a good two hours with it in photoshop. I'm still learning how to make things look good in it, but I think I'm doing pretty well for a beginner.
As always, please give me whatever feedback you have. This may be comic 22, but I'm still just getting into this whole webcomic thing. Let me know what you want, and I'll see what I can do about giving it to you.
