it's uhm.... yeah...

uhm... gotta go now...


j/k

cool first start
only thing i would do to it, is change the font to something like Tahoma and put it in bold .... this way it's more readable.

Otherwise, pretty cool

very nice, it be nicer if all the pics are optimized a little more

215k background pic
143k first pic
137k second pic
50k third

total of 545k, quite big for a small page
you can make them look as good with just half the size.


....WHAT? i'm on 56k

also you can make the background fixed so it doens't move when you scroll with

bgproperties="fixed"

in the body tag, it loooks better when the background doesn't repeat.

Yeah ... thumbnails would be nice. It also saves on the limited bandwidth that geocities gives you.

Errrr ... what did you use to edit the photos? Just make the pictures smaller and then link them. Sorta like how you do it on here - except using HTML.
