Just made a quick
update to the
Coming Soon section - the Lard Lad Simpsons
set has been canceled for now - keep checking
back to see when/if it becomes available.
March 4, 2007
Greetings to all!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend...
I've made some updated to the Coming Soon
section - there are now pictures of the various
items housed on this site so no more broken
links to external sources! There's a brief
rundown of the specs on most of them but the
picture really speaks for itself. There
are also links provided to click and reserve any
of the items there directly with Krypton!
Lastly, I will likely not have the opportunity
to update the Guestbook feature for the next
week or so - in the interim however, if anyone
wishes to "sign" the Guestbook, simply drop an
e-mail to Artie at
krypton611@aol.com and we'll make sure it
makes it onto the Guest Log when it's
re-launched.
More cool stuff to come soon - keep checking
back and make sure to
join the mailing list! (We'll be doing
e-mail-alerts of site-updates in the near future
as well!)
March 2, 2007
IMPORTANT
NOTICE: A distasteful and inappropriate
entry was made to our Guestbook section today.
Thankfully, it came swiftly to our attention and
we immediately removed the offensive material.
We apologize to anyone who may have been privy
to said links.
Unfortunately, the individual who decided to
make such an entry has no consideration, tact or
class. And as always, one bad apple tends
to ruin it for the rest...
So, due to this incident, we have temporarily
removed the Sign Guestbook function from the
site and once we have reconfigured it, all new
entries will now be forwarded to the Web Master
for review and approval prior to their being
posted to the site.
So, again - we apologize to anyone who may have
been offended and we will let everyone know when
the Sign Guestbook function is again active.
Thank you all of the GOOD APPLES out there for
your positive and encouraging feedback.
Sincerely,
Your Web Master on behalf of Arthur Palomba, Jr.
March 1, 2007
Hope everyone
enjoyed the big NYC Comic Con this past weekend!
A lot of really sweet stuff on the horizon for
2007 - can't wait to see it all reach the
shelves!
Not much to report in the way of updates; I'm
still stuck in Florida (I know, poor Webmaster!)
- but I went ahead and posted Krypton's hours of
operations in the
Store Policies section.
I'm looking forward to having some more fun with
this site later this month when I'm back in NYC
- thanks to everyone for all of the positive
feedback about the site!
February 19th,

February 14th,
2007
Hope everyone is
enjoying a pleasant Valentine's Day!
However, just in case anyone of us dropped the
ball, one of Artie's customers may have a
solution!
Check out our second Customer's site link:
www.statenislandmassage.com
What better way to make up for missing
Valentine's Day (or maybe just to get a
head-start on next year) than giving the gift of
a relaxing, rejuvenating massage!?!?
Support another local professional AND a
fellow-comic-fan and check out what Scott has to
offer!
Lastly, I fixed the "Store Policies" link
- now it's up and posted. Please take a
moment to read these policies - thanks!
More to come soon!
February 13th, 2007
Greetings Art-o-philes.
Your humble Web Master is still down south in
Florida (80 degrees here today - absolutely
dreadful) so the updates are coming slow (same
old song, eh?). However, I wanted to
remind all of the men out there to get your @$$es
in gear if you haven't already to NOT FORGET
TOMORROW!!!!
That's right, tomorrow is Wednesday, February
14th - you know what that means....
NEW COMICS DAY!!!!
(What, is there anything else going on
tomorrow??)
February 8th, 2007
Nothing to report
today except insomnia...
February 7th, 2007
Your WebMaster
has had a crazy week thus far so I've just
updated a few odds and ends as well as one very
cool addition...
Links,
Coming Soon and the
FEATURED ITEM OF THE WEEK! (I'll be putting
a spotlight-featured-item-of-the-week thing
sometime soon as well...keep checkin')
Also, I've hashed out some sweet facades for the
site which feature various
incarnations/interpretations of the BIG "S" -
will configure them as soon as I can...
Also, watch for the NEWS SECTION to be featured
as the HOME PAGE of Krypton SINY in the near
future.
Lastly (but not
leastly), I want to welcome the site's FIRST
Customer-Cross-Link!
Check out Anthony Leto's site at
www.Krypton33.com! Check for a
banner-link on the Favorite Links Page soon.
Enjoy the rest of the week and for those of you
who didn't drop at LEAST a C-NOTE at Artie's
today, shame on you!
February 3rd, 2007
Uploaded the
BETA-VERSION of the

Elder of the House of Art-El (i.e., Arthur
Palomba, Jr.) all the best in 2007 and hope this
website helps propel him to his best year yet!
This site will be continually enhanced and
tweaked as I get the opportunity - including
unique page themes with various artists and
depictions of the "BIG S" as well as more
content, more links and an extremely enhanced
gallery & virtual tour (check out the current
'beta' slideshow of shots from Krypton from
January, 2007
