I read on a mobile device and found the webpages would lose my place, so I download the latest mobile version with wget and convert to a single epub with Calibre. I will try to update as each new version comes out with the a new link.
Availability of different versions of 6 Times a Day

[UPDATED v.2] In case you haven't noticed, the set of drop-down lists on the forum header has been restructured. 6 Times a Day is now offered in three different versions:
The forum header buttons were reallocated to accommodate this change. Background material that previously had dedicated buttons on the left side of the forum header can now be found under an initial "Introduction" item on each of the first three drop-down lists. Each such introduction also includes a brief indication of how that version differs from the others.
The "6TaD grayscale" and "6TaD mobile" versions are generated by a script from the "6 Times a Day" version, so should always track the latter closely.
If you detect any problems with this new structure
, or have any issues or compaints 
or suggestions 
, you can contact me by e-mail, either directly (by clicking on my name below) or by clicking on my name in the upper left corner of this post and using the forum's own privacy-preserving method of sending messages between forum participants. Or if you have a topic that you deem worthy of general discussion, and not just a problem report, then feel free to post it in this thread.

- "6TaD grayscale": a grayscale version, now extended through the last published part with decolorized versions of recent parts. In other respects this version is identical to the the next-described version.
- "6TaD mobile": a version linked to avoid generation of the stock forum headers, which require a lot of display horsepower. This version is suitable for handheld devices with lesser compute and memory capability, and where download bandwidth is limited or expensive. It is otherwise identical to the next-described version.
- "6 Times a Day": the most up-to-date version, with all published text revisions and all available colorized illustrations. As chapters are revised and republished, or typos are fixed, those changes will be found here and in the "6TaD mobile" version.

STD now has chapter tags

The published versions of STD, both the regular pages for computer browsers and the new mobile pages for handhelds, now have HTML chapter tags on all their CHAPTER NN heading lines, using the syntax #chapter_n or #chapter_nn. That makes it possible to reference a specific chapter in a URI.
For example, to see Christine's fantasy in Part 82 of being drilled by Alan while she's in the Wonder Woman costume that Kat just gave her, go to http://six.clubetchi...2.htm#chapter_4 and then page down a few screens.
The backstory also has tags, organized by year using the syntax #Ynnnn, so http://six.clubetchi...story.htm#Y2001 will get you to the entries for 2001.
If you specify a chapter or year that is not in the file, the file location won't change.

Mobile version of STD now available

Readers on iPhones, iPads and Droids have had difficulty reading STD, which has been formatted for reading on computer browsers. The primary problems were the forced column width -- too large -- and the forced font sizes -- also too large.
During the last year, the entire STD opus has been edited to meet current HTML5 and XHTML standards, so that all formatting is localized to a single auxiliary cascading style sheet (std-read.css). This made it feasible to create a special version of STD for mobile devices that uses a version of this style sheet adapted for mobile reading, with an auto-sizing column width and scaled-down font sizes and assorted margins. The text and illustrations of each of the actual STD files is identical to the original, but the inter-file linkages are changed so that linking on a mobile device takes the reader from one mobile-readable file to the next (or prior) mobile-readable file.
You can find the mobile version of STD at http://six.clubetchi.com/6times/mobile . For parts 65 - 70, which existed in both monochrome and color fomats, I've provided only the color format for mobile viewing.
If you encounter any problems, please e-mail me with the details, identifying the file (e.g., the part number) and providing at least a brief description of the problem.

Spacer posted part 82 on Tuesday. It is the first of two parts that were intended to be read as a whole, but the illustrations aren't yet ready for the second part (part 83). Merry Christmas from Spacer!
Please post any comments, typos, appreciation, etc in the Current Topics section of the forum.

Spacer is traveling and can't update this forum. For those who check these announcements for new material, rather than the drop down list or other forum entries, you should know that Part 80 and Part 81 were posted a few days ago. Please check the forum topics on current parts for links where you can leave your comments about the artwork, the stories, any found typos, etc. Spacer appreciates hearing from his fans, so please leave some kind words.
