Oh, very cool! I love your pic--you made that, didn't you? I couldn't make it through the text, though, on account of the white print on colored background. You may find a lot of people, especially those with not-so-good eyes, will have trouble with that. Just something to think about, you know? It does look great, though.

becca,

Your site is great.  It is unique...haven't seen one like it at all anywhere!  However, I have to echo Kate...the white-on-dark is really hard to read for us oldies-but-goodies  Grin  Again, just something to think about.

becca, Its a great site. I've only been on your Home page and History page, the history page wasn't showing up too clearly. I found it fine otherwise. Although I don't have a problem with the white on color, I think some people will. Smiley

Thanks for the comments. I will take into account the color consideration. I might eventually change the whole color sceme. That was the first one I made, and just put it up to get something going.

You may be on to something with this site, Becca. I liked the story, BTW. Good luck with it. Keeping my fingers crossed that you don't fall too far back into that whole writing trap. You know?

Just an FYI, I've updated my site and changed the color scheme a bit. I have white lettering on a black background now. Hopefully that will be a bit easier on the eyes.

Thanks for your input and support. Smiley
