When i did, the strips were offset to the right and almost losing their right end in the borders, and at least one of them seemed to be smaller than it ought...

I suspect that the presence of the larger PayPal donation button has frobnicated the page formatting.

Gawd, she's haut!
Well you could describe the Senior Director of the MIB as an Office Manager in a very general sense.

I suggest you contact the distillery directly for a bulk rate. You'll save in the long run.

Well, it wasn't quite a traditional use of the term. If I'd been speaking in Formal High Hacker, I would have said "I suspect that Paul frobnicated the page with a larger PayPal donation button, and that this led to lossage in the formatting. He may have neglected to recompile the world and smoke-test the appearance."

README: Following these links brings a serious risk of an archive dive. It might be wise to order up a rotary debugger before beginning.
