Hmm it seems that the recent button which should link to the last uploaded page is linking to the second last page I uploaded. The html all seems to be right.
Any ideas?

It's not a problem so much as a programming choice...
The way the Homepage feature typically works is that it displays the most recent comic page. When people used to click on the "recent" button it would take them to another view of that page, but in the comic template version instead.
The got complaints from people who said they'd already SEEN that page and didn't want to view it again when they clicked the navigation button. So in response to them Volte made it so that the button went to the second last page instead.
After that, the few people who used the home page feature without a comic page up, like yourself, started complaining. :)
-----------------------------------------
I'm sorry this is the case. :(
One way around it though, if you want to use an introductory page, is to upload one separately and direct all your links to it-> signature links, links on other websites etc. The people on DD who normally view your comic won't need an intro page since they're already familiar with the set up, it's only new people that'll need it.
Just turn off the homepage feature and set up a separate inro page with a link to your latest and first comic pages. ^_^
I;ve done that myself here: http://www.drunkduck.com/Pinky_TA/html/intro.html

Nah I'm actually fine with it. I was just worried that I had messed up as I have a basic knowledge of html.
