Mihaela,
Your site may offer some good information but I wouldn't stick around to =
find out for two reasons.
First, if I want a geocities banner to pop up every time I click on a =
link, I'll go to geocities.com.
Second, white text on a black background DOES NOT WORK. The eye is =
accustomed to dark text on a light background. Switching the effect is =
fine for emphasis, but not for normal text. Also, due to the nature of =
your content, a more than casual visitor would probably want to print =
the details. WHITE TEXT WILL NOT PRINT!!! If you do know of any printer =
that uses white ink, please let me know. I could save a real bundle on =
homemade Christmas cards <G>
