Hooray! Not sure about the design though, but I'm sure it will grow on me, like athlete's foot.

ARRRGGGHHH!!!

Without thinking, I tried to visit the OLD site, and it took control of my computer and CRASHED MY BROWSER and I don't want to know what other terrible javascript things it's done to me.

Gotta watch that .co.uk vs that .com thing more carefully in the future!

Going over there now...

For what it's worth, I *like* the new design. Simplicity is next to godliness in web design.

Simplicity *is* the new rock'n'roll, but perhaps a bit of colour would be nice. Bring back Ned's April 1 front page!

It's beautiful, man. Beautiful

Just one thing, its refered to everywhere as freakytrigger.co.uk but it actually is www.freakytrigger.co.uk. Not a major quibble, but may confuse the odd type in.

Also it might be nice to explain what nyplm is, and grey on white...Not so sure.

Zowie, thassa spicy meatball!

Fantastic job, guys, especially the Third Door and Tom's Amnesiac piece. I'm halfway tempted to take the day off work to read the whole thing.

Hmmm you know I've just realised what that picture on the freaky trigger front page actually is. For some reason I never looked at it properly before and just assumed it to be some sort of snail creature. Quite what a snail creature would be doing on the freaky trigger front page, I'm not sure, but I never really considered that.

Maybe there should be a picture of a snail creature there...

We could have it as our mascot and have a naming contest.

― Tom, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I really like the design.

― Patrick, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

A mascot naming contest, hm?

*assumes whining little voice*

Hmmmm... I'm still getting the FreakyTrigger is resting page!...is that right?

welcome back

― Jeff, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I wish that it was a snail with Fat Bob's face, that'd be wicked awesome.

― Ally, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You might try holding down shift (or option, if you have an option key) and clicking 'reload', james.

― Josh, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It was like an essential part of my weblife. I've got on without it surprisingly better than I thought, but obviously it's unspeakably wonderful to see FT back. Normality is restored, you might say.

I'm really glad that Mike Daddino is back. I hope he's gonna write more about music than he was doing during the last days of Cultural Artifacts.

― Patrick, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It's good to have Am I Cool or Not back!

― james e l, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it's great to have all of it back, and just as the birthday edition was the perfect ending to one chapter, the abundance of articles and features on display are a fantastic way to begin a new one. for my part, i'll try contributing more articles and hopefully all involved will do the same.

― fred solinger, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes, do please contribute, indeed. That applies to all of you. ALL of you. ALL OF YOU! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Um, anyway.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I can write a weekly column on staying at hotels, yo. Or not.

― Ally, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

IT'S GRATE!!

― Michael, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

To second Pete's point, the link on the old netcomuk site does not work unless you add the "www" before it.

― bnw, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

yay, back at last! comes back just as i don't have proper access to a computer for a few days, so its going to take a while to read all that new stuff..

― gareth, Thursday, 21 June 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I've been a "lurker" of FG and associated links for the last 4 months and I'd just like to say "Welcome back" and "Thanks" because (despite only watching) it "absorbs" me more than anything I've ever seen on the net.

Those dot com hijackers sure did suck, welcome back
