=46irst of all, thanks for your remarks and for taking the time to check
out my page.=20

Since the main changes I did recently mostly had to do with
accessability I had to concider a few things. Javascripts and
uplighting gifs may look nice (although somewhat boring.) They also
add to the weight of the page. Double pictures for every items which
has to light up.=20

Since they add (imho of course) very little to the usablity of the
page (selected link has an other color, default hand appears to show
it's a link.) I decided to keep things simple.

In general I'm not a big fan of flashing things. Attention should be
drawn to the content and not to the menus, or worse, to useless
gadgets which are there only of being there.=20
