You do not have to make excuses. Yet time is not an excuse in your case. If
instead of harassing me here you work on your site, it will be up to the
scratch
You opted spend your time differently

valid.
I do not recall a single concrete piece of crittism. Will you fish them out?
Actually I remeber one. Someone was annoyed with bg shot and hit sounds. The
page is supposed to communicate an impression of shooting. Yet I was
expected to rush to remove the sounds only to please some pain in the neck
who fail to understand purpose of the site

this is easy to correct. Yet when did you watch it last time? Perhaps you
sow 800x600 version in 1024x768? It has been changed.
The reason for black background is that the system in question is used in
darkness. Black bg helps to communicate that feeling
Red is because the system shoots red laser beams. Becides any color on black
bg is not too readable. But the color scheme is not discussed here. Font
size could be increased

"font-weight:bold; font-size:12px; font-family:tahoma;}"
Where exacly you got this line from? I do not recall it

see the prevuious remark

Actually I did exactly this - I asked a question. But instead of technical
info I got moralizing.
If you consider yourself an expers and hang out here to help non-experts,
why not just to supply facts and stay away from moralizing?
It is up you an individual to take a decision basing on what he reads here.
Why you consider your duty to save his soul and keep turning him onto your
faith? Is this because you do not charge for advice, you take moral reward
this way?

See previous remark. Please do not start this again. Do something on your
site instead. Or explain me about the JS hit counters as you were going in
the next door thread but stalled.
