[edit] Date

when was this thing put on the site? Because I remember when I used to watch it in 2003, it nevber had this on it. But when I started going back on the site this year, this showed up. Homestramy20|^Talk 23:24, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Well, I know it came around before december 2004, cause thats when I started watching homestar and that was the first homestar-related page I ever saw. — _talk Bubsty _edits 01:56, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Nay, before May '04 for the same reason. --notstrongorbad 02:02, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I know at least late 2003, when I first started going on there, I saw it.-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 02:30, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

And now that I read the page, at least before April 1, because of the April Fools Joke.-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 02:34, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

No, I got here in May 2003 and I do not remember this being there, just the new intro. DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘

[edit] April Fool's 2006

Should the April Fool's 2006 prank be mentioned on this page? It does make sense to me to do it since the other pranks are listed here. It is the first indication many of us got of the April Fool's prank.— Bassbone (^{TALK CONT}) 00:29, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

I definitely think so. TheGreatLogini 01:14, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't, as the other April Fools' pranks only affected the index page (with a few added for 2003). April Fool's 2006 affected nearly every page, so it doesn't need mentioning on this page specifically. --ENUSY 01:19, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Two redirects

The Homestar Runner Toolbar redirects the main Store page ("index.html") to here. Can this be fixed? --Da M-izz-u^Tizzalk 22:31, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Why don't you ask the man who can do something about it? —Zelinda 01:44, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pages 1-20?

I clicked on the "Come On In!" button, and it sent me to the "virus" main pages, which I noticed is Main Page 22. I think it sends you to all of them.

Yeah, you're right. It looks like the Trogdor index page had the other main pages added. Homestar-Winner (talk) 20:25, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Majesty?

Is it worth noting that on the Trogdor Main Page, taking the mouse over "Come on In!" or "Watch Intro!" causes the two to be ringed with majesty lines?

[edit] Alas, poor index

Did we get the flash file for the Store advertising index page, or did we miss it?--Jellote wuz here 00:55, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Font

What is the font for "watch intro" and "come on in"? I looked in the Fonts page and I can't find it. Mml554 talk 19:46, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

[edit] New Pages

This page is getting pretty long, and with the new update, it's about to get longer. So I propose the creation of two new pages:

• A page for the frequently-updated HTML text that was at the bottom of the page from 2018 to 2020.
• A page for "the latest styles" and "store" sections, containing a table for each (plus a section for the post-flash update! page).

The problem is, I don't know what these pages should be called. Any suggestions? Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 02:53, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

So far, the best ideas I've come up with are "Index Page Footer" for the first one and "Index Page Messages" for the second (kinda like Main Page Messages). Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 22:30, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Those sound good to me. I think we need the index page messages page as the old crap corner is gonna be the only link to the new pages hostings of old crap like the KOT main page. Guybrush20X6 16:21, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
