Yes, I believe that's why I used the phrase "scroll arrows" as opposed
to "scroll bar".

Well, they're good for now. I'll improve them again in a few weeks,
you need to try and remember that this shit ain't exactly prefab, I
have to code all this functionality from scratch. Yes, there are some
cheap alternatives I could turn to, like using an iframe and sending
the blog entires to that...however that would sacrifice compatibility,
I would lose my distinct graphic style and those nifty lil transparent
drop downs wouldn't work right in Firefox (one of the primary reasons
I switched to a completely Flash design).
Essentially I'm using my blog as a kind of test site and eventually
when my template becomes perfected I plan to create a kind of Flash
Blog site for people to use and they would be able to choose from a
variety of different themes and styles...some which I've already been
working on:

But, before that happens there's a LOT of bugs that need to be worked
out. For example I need to add in an RSS feed, a plain text based
fall back version, scroll bar fixes, the ability for users to log in
and respond to entries and a dozen or so other lil things. In the
mean time though, I have the most unique blog in existence...and I
like that.
