Awww, c'mon! :)  Well, at least you can leave it together lest there be
some rare case I'm in Phoenix... ;)

The layout (for the main page) is like it is right now.  It will be updated
with what's going on, and in a little bit I'll take down the welcome
part.  But for the image displayed on the front page its width would be
required 200 - I like how it works, big enough to see the model but any
bigger would crowd the text beside it.  Height is negotiable.  But of
course we will want a bigger image for the model of the month review page.

Right.  For now I did that (and added the signature target="_blank") since
we didn't have that page made.  Now I have things to do that are higher
priority than that.

(...) So you're saying those pieces take up less precious space together than apart? Cool :) Love the excuse to keep an awesome model together :) -Tim <>< (URL) timcourtne ICQ: 23951114 Get paid to surf the web! Visit: (URL) (27 years ago, 14-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
