Hi all,
Sorry i think people have got the wrong end of the stick, i am going to try
and start a webdesign company and want to put my banner on all pages i
create, but a banner can really screw up how a framed page looks, and ruins
the design, so i thought a nice unobtrusive pop under so when you exit the
site you see who made it, otherwise, could i make it show a page to people
before they move on to a different site?
TTFN

And while I'm at it, also pages which take it upon (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
