As posted on the main page, I now have confirmation that the movie will be available on DVD in November 2005. |
31/12/04 |
For all the people who have been asking about the movie, there is now a petition to get it released on DVD. Check the main page for details. |

 First update for a while. The Dog font shown to the right and available in the Downloads section, is now also available for Macs. |
| 6/8/00 |
I've added a little search form to the bottom of each page in this site. You can now search by keyword for anything in this site. Pretty nifty huh? I've had to juggle a few things around to get it working so let me know if you discover any problems. |
| 12/6/00 |
New Zealand's The Press newspaper has done a personal profile on Marray ball in today's issue. Read it here. |
| 20/5/00 |
Added an awards section listing awards this site has recieved and places where this site has been reviewed. |
| 14/3/00 |
This site reached 10 000 hits today (sometime shortly after midnight this morning in Western Australian time). I guess I should do something to commemorate the milestone but I'm all out of imagination right now. I did update the desktop theme in the Download Section so I guess that's something. |
| 1/3/00 |
Added a link on the main page to a French Footrot Flats site. |
| 18/2/00 |
Added a brief tribute for the late Charles Schulz, creator of the comic "Peanuts". |
| 22/1/00 |
Added a new comic exchange, discussion forum thingie. Not exactly sure what to call it really. Have a look anyway. |
| 5/12/99 |
Added a poll to the characters section. Now you can go and vote for your favourite. |
| 21/11/99 |
Added a link to the page about the film to the links at the bottom of each page. Based on the feedback I was getting, it seems a lot of people didn't know that section was there or had a hard time finding it. |
| 31/10/99 |
It's done! The footrot Flats desktop them and screensaver are finally finished. I told you it wouldn't take long once I was on a roll. You can get them from the new downloads section. You can also download the Dog font used on this site from the same place. |
| 26/10/99 |
Added samples of songs from the sountrack to the movie section. Now you can hear the songs as you read the lyrics.
Also finally began working on the long promised Footrot Flats Windows desktop theme. It's not done yet but I'm on a roll so it won't be long. Sounds for the theme are done (taken from the animated movie). Most of the other bits are done too. Just need to do the screensaver.
Added more pictures and info to the characters section and added a map of the Footrot Farm to the FAQ section. |
| 1/10/99 |
The site has now been moved to a new faster server. The address of the main site is the same but there's been some re-arranging on other pages. That's why it's a good idea to keep links directed at the main page. Some sections of the site disappeared for a couple of days but all should be back to normal now. |
| 16/7/99 |
Finally implemented font embedding. That means that if you've got a recent version of Internet Explorer with the right components installed, you'll be able to see the dog's writing in the Dog's font without having to have that font installed on your computer. |
| 1/7/99 |
I've had a lot of questions about whether or not Footrot Flats will be continuing. Apparently, the recently published Footrot Flats 27 will be the last. A few weeks back I was sent an article from a New Zealand newspaper giving a few details. You can read the article for more information. |
| 30/6/99 |
Moved the news items to their own page right here.
Greatly expanded the FAQ section to include a lot more information about the Footrot Flats animated feature film. |
| 27/6/99 |
A lot of peope have requested some sample comic strips in the site. I was a bit hesitant to do it for copyright reasons since I am not Murray Ball (so enough with the fan mail). I have put up a few today and I will put up more but they will only be as additions to the bios for each character in the characters section. Mainly to help people get a better understanding of what each character is like. |
| 7/6/99 |
Made a few additions to the site based on the numerous suggestions that have come in. If you see a change based on something you suggested, pat yourself on the back for helping to make this a better site. Changes included a picture index in the character section and next/previous buttons at the bottom of each character description. Some more of the character details have also been filled in. |
| 2/5/99 |
Added a few more things to the character section (finally got the Murphy's info up). Added pictures of the movie's video cover. |
| 30/4/99 |
Added a site map and filled in a bit more of the details/pictures in the Characters section. Added a form to the Feedback section. The FAQ section is fairly complete now although you can expect additions/corrections. The same goes for any part of the site that 'appears' complete. |
| 22/4/99 |
Expanded the Where to get it section by adding a list of bookstores that sell Footrot Flats comics online. |
| 15/4/99 |
Change Places & Settings section to the Frequently Asked Questions section. I figured that made more sense and could cover more. Filled in a lot of the site's content. |
| 13/4/99 |
Put up sample version of the site for others to test. |
