SVGL passed its one millionth visit (lifetime) last night. Thank you guys so much for your support, your readership, your thoughts, comments, emails, Twitter discussions, smackdowns, recommendations, corrections, disagreements, linkage, jokes and internet-friendship.
And thanks to Elliot Trinidad, known in most places as Scypher, for the sweet new Onechanbara banner from this source image. Scypher also did the art for Global Game Jam title Let's Shooting Love, by the way, and he's looking for more indie projects to lend his design talents to, so do hit him up.
As you guys know, I used to do all my own banners LIKE CONSTANTLY but now that I don't have Photoshop anymore it's not so easy, and Scypher's been awesome enough to take care of it for me. This is the kind of community you guys are. See how awesome? Applaud yourselves.
Thanks also to the folks I consider my blog neighbors in spirit: Michael Abbott, Chris Dahlen, Mitch Krpata, Iroquois Pliskin, Corvus Elrod, L.B. Jeffries, Duncan Fyfe, to name just a few.

Gratz Leigh.
What level blogger does that make you now? ;)
Here's to a million more visits!
*Raises glass.*
LV 29?
NATHU? GIZAN? NAFOI?
So who had the millionth visit? I couldn't have been some anonymous sod, could it?
Someone from the Slate article.
W00t!
I just like saying w00t.
Hey if the blog was an iPhone app you would be rich beyond your wildest dreams! Of course the blog is too original for a iPhone app...
Congratulations
New banner is sweet. Loving the scarf. And the sideways perspective is right. So is titular kunoichi the same chick from the previous banner? Seems she's aged a bit: reflective of this blog? ;p
If you're looking for a cheap Photoshop replacement, you could try The Gimp (http://www.gimp.org). It does much of what Photoshop does and it's open-source freeware.
Gratz on your LV 29 Blogosphere Mage Leigh :)
Congrats Leigh! You earned every one :)
Hi Leigh!
I'm honored to be considered spiritual blog neighber. And as your blog neighbor in spirit, I am legally obligated to tell you that I touch little boys.
I kid! congrats on the milestone.
also that banner is sweet. Color me jealous.
Iroquois -- I want to make some kind of joke about sex offender registries, but given the topics I've been concentrating on recently, I figure I'd better stay clear :)
Grats on the milestone, Leigh. Like Iroquois, I'm honored to be considered a neighbor.

Ding! Congratulations Leigh ^^
Congratulations, an may there be many many more visits to you =)
Congrats Leigh - The industry needs more writers like you.
Congratulations on a million! I can only imagine what that would be like. I have no idea what my count's at. 30?
That's also very nice of you to confer blog neighbor status. I only wish I could think of a cool sex offender joke like Iroquois. Maybe I'll get back to you on this.
Many congratulations. You are my current favourite game writer and I see no signs that that will change any time soon.
*Pops the champagne*
Congratulations!
Congratulations Leigh.
I'll keep performing my daily visit. Thank you for sharing your work and thoughts with us.
As a fellow writer I know you appreciate the recognition.
European greetings,
Ex
DING!
Please continue the awesomeness.
This is actually the point on other sites where you would have won several free internets by now. ;)
Keep it up with the excellent prose and discussions and I'm sure this will seem like a very low number in the years to come.
Congrats from Greece on your millionth visitor, Leigh (did they get to win anything, btw? Like, free internets for the day or something?), and on the great work you do! Here's to twice as many visitors and lots more great writing in the future!
But, come on, we're all here reading just 'cos you're a girl, ain't that right?? :P
Hooray for SVGL! Love the banners by the way, the new as well as the old. Is anyone else wondering why Leigh no longer has access to PS? Looking forward to more posts on your investigations into the "sexual identity" of the gamer culture at large, Leigh. Cheers!
To be quite honest, it's because I was using a cracked version on my old laptop that's since died :P
wow I just found this blog, interesting. Leigh you're a nerd.
Hell yeah I am.
