Hey thanks Jerry, I appreciate it. I will definitely be around, to bug
you guys with questions now and again :).

I think I'm going to leave it. Thanks for your critiques- though I
think we come full circle to rudeness again. I don't remember showing
arrogance. Defensiveness perhaps, but not arrogance. If I came off that
way I apologize.
I thought I already stated this, but the site isn't public yet, and is
in more of an "alpha". After talking with you guys, I decided I was
going to rework it from the ground up, to be XHTML 1.0 Strict
compliant. Well, to be honest I had decided that when a friend shunned
me about this very thing.
I remember reading a long article, about not being able to please
everyone when it comes to design. Out of the 4k or so unique hits I've
gotten that returned any feedback, I've only had about 10 or so
complain about text being small, or the colors being hard to see.
Still, I plan on having a CSS style selector. The default layout would
be much like the one up now.
Rex- have you seen phong.com? I'm assuming this guy is a bad designer
too. I've seen his site with very small text, with all text shades of
blue, hard to read. But I wouldn't call him a bad designer. And he
works for $80 an hour. And he's a nice guy.
I'm not trying to make a mainstream site for millions of people to see.
I have a target audience. That target audience has had no problems with
the site so far. By the way, what does SFB stand for? I hope it's not
what I think it is...
