Sorry, but using Netscape 4.75 on Mac OS 8.5, I can see the card fine,
but absolutely nothing happens when I move the mouse over the gifts.
Even the status bar doesn't change. I can't attest to the sound, as my
computer's sound is screwed up already.

I think the main body of text is in too small a font. It probably looks
just fine on your Windows machine, but it's a bit small on a Mac. It's
not illegibly tiny, though, so you could leave this. The red text under
the tree is plenty bright, IMO, perhaps because this is a Mac. The
images look quite nice. The "Christmas Music" button, being a standard
button, is a bit jarring and out-of-place. Could you replace this with
a custom image pseudo-button?

When Christmas rolls around, is your "Only 16 days 7 hours..." script
going to write something like "Merry Christmas!" or otherwise germaine?
I'm not ready to reset my system clock and restart Netscape to test
that, sorry.

Very nice card!
