(Todd, is my link to your background page acceptable?  If not, I'll change

Actually, there are three mistakes -- one very very tiny and the other two
are larger.

First, the URL is wrong -- you've got:

   http://www.fibblesnork.com/lego/backgrounds

and the correct URL is:

   http://www.fibblesnork.com/lego/backgrounds/

(That's a very tiny mistake...no biggie.)

Second, point #5 of the Terms of Use for the images says that they may be
used "as background images (for example, page backgrounds and table
backgrounds) but not as embedded (e.g. <IMG>) images."  You have some HTML
code, however, which goes:

   <IMG SRC="bricksblue.jpg" HEIGHT=84 WIDTH=60>

To correct this, remove the <IMG> tag and replace it with something like

   Fibblesnork Backgrounds

Third and finally, you are linking to the page within your own frame, which
is generally considered bad netiquette without permission.  To fix this, use

   <A TARGET="_top" HREF="http://...

instead of

   <A HREF="http://...
