If you're curious, please check them out.  They've just been pretty
thoroughly tested with Win32 machines, and we know how to get them working
when they act up on someone

I'm guessing that you are probably using the standard browser setup (Menu
Bar, Toolbar with Text Labels, Address bar, each one one on its own line)
and running 800x600.  I tried it like that & I see what you mean.  Some

know I can at least make the home page fit without scrolling.

Thank you for taking the time to look at the site.  I only wish more people
could take the time to do so.
