No rush Lost. I did the website only to see how hard it would be to do using that template and as a way to say Merry Christmas to the exco crowd since I am feeling too lazy to write them a long post. I had no idea that I could do it so fast! I had to spend the longest time looking for a midi I liked in my files.

Ok baby just tell me what you really like so far and we will go from there. Then how many colors do you want to use? Do you have a pic or graphic that you want to center it around? You might need to decide on a logo image first and start from there.

Wow, Lost, you got a ton of great loot!
I did pretty good this year, gift-wise... I ended up with some money and a whole slew of giftcards to Borders (bookstore), a couple of new games for my Nintendo DS, a basket full of mango mandarin stuff from Bath and Bodyworks, clothes, perfume, jewelry, and enough chocolate to last even me quite a while. But I think my best gift was the money I got from my father-in-law because I was able to buy PSP9 with it! Yay!

I didn't get a lot of things. I don't have relatives that I know of so that is usually the case. I give year round to the people that I love and mostly give to children's charities at Christmas. This year I gave boots, hats, and gloves along with grooming suplies and a few small toys and candy to the migrant worker children at the winter camo. I bought most of that stuff in Jan and Feb and put it up for Christmas. I also gave some gloves, hats and socks to the homeless shelter and a halfway house for the mentally ill.
I did get a cd full of pictures of some of the kids that I love but I cant see them because I can't get hold of the walmart software that they used to burn them. And I got a Safeway gift certificate and those essential oils from Rich. Thank you again Rich. I have been told to expect a few more things from friends who left town early and I hope that one of those gifts is a hermit crab because one set of friends went to Florida where their kids catch them on the beach. I really really want a hermit crab or two.
Redeemed, honestly the best way to learn javascript I think is to study scripts that have already been written. Rich talked about a rotating flavicon script and I bet that I could write one like that by studying random image scripts or show on this date scripts if I was so inclined. Some people do make very elaborate scripts just to say go back to the top. I had a book once too but I tossed it because it made no sense to me. I was able to see it all better by comparing scripts that others had written side by side on wordpad.
Ellie if I were you, I would take those Borders gift cards and buy a book on PSP9. It's hard to follow a tut AND try to render it but a book you could prop up near by and just glance over at it from time to time. I wish that I had a book!

My main gift I got is that in about 10 days, I am going to Alberta to see my family! I haven't seen them in about 2 years and really miss them all. Also, I got a microwave and a slow cooker. Also "March of the Penguins" DVD. A whole lot of chocolate and a bunch of other things here and there. Yeah. Really. My family always majorly spoils me at Christmas.

Bethany, you've still got something coming from me, too. I've got to send my husband out to mail it first, though... Buying a book on PSP9 is a GREAT idea, but I have a horrible, horrible secret. I am a romance junkie and all of my giftcards will probably go toward romance novels. Yes, I'm very ashamed. ;D Shan, have you watched your March of the Penguins DVD yet? I'm interested to know what you think of it. And you really scored with a new microwave and slow cooker! Seriously, I used to roll my eyes at gifts like that, but since getting my own place I am ecstatic when I am gifted with something homey. My husband bought me a vacuum yesterday and I felt like I won the lottery! LOL (Pretty sad, huh?)

hehe Yeah. I know what you mean, Ellie I am the same way... especially this year, with my husband and I being finally on our own again. It is like "Yay!! I can cook and clean and be a wife! " hehe I am very happy I got both of those appliances this Christmas! And that is cool you got a vacuum, too hehe I would have felt the same way.... in fact, I know I would! Yesterday, we bought a floor lamp and a shower liner and I was ecstatic! hehe And I use to be into romance novels, but haven't for a few years. I am now more into fantasy kinda novels... though, honestly, I don't read as much as I should. I am too attached to this computer and the internet and graphics
