I've made a few changes, there's still woodworking info, but I just
stuck up a non-related slide show (stuck it up, like it was easy: frigging Picasa is as intuitive as bullfighting in your birthday suit). It took me all blasted day! It seems decent to me. Check it out, please: http://charlieselfonline.com/ and click on the slide show indicator. It does eventually work, though. Or at least I think it did. I've got the '24 Overland coming out in the May issue of Cars & Parts, and the 1930 Ford model A in the July issues. It's a good time to have more than one interest as a freelance writer, I'll tell you. And the competition is heating up, with all the layoffs at newspapers and magazines. Fortunately, I'm not really up for warm and fuzzy stories, prefering to stick with woodworking, vehicles (preferably old), and travel. Short distances for the latter these days. I live in an area where there are almost too many day trips possible. Comments welcome. Just remember what your Momma told you: if you can't say something good... ![]() |

You might want to look at SimpleViewer. It is free and pretty flexible. I saw it on someones wood page and gave it a look. You can see it on my page by clicking on the "Photo Gallery" menu item on the left of the screen. I only have some cars you might like and some cats. It's not really hard to set up once you figure out how to use it and what you want. On the bottom right of either of my galleries there is a link to the SimpleViewer site. It's free for commercial or private use. Comments welcome. Just remember what your Momma told you: if you can't say something good... ![]() Only criticism I have is on the Handplanes page you need to set the margins on the writeup. On Firefox, there is no left hand margin and a lot of right hand margin. Your Hardwood page does have a margin, although it is not perfectly centered. In fact, as I go though more pages, you need to work on centering your text on the pages. The tops of the pages are fine, it's the text underneath that need some work. Good show! didn't work in Firefox though. Slideshow works fine here in Firefox 3.07. If you click on a slide for a larger picture it opens at a Picasa site though and the slide show is no longer a slide show. Oh, the Samples page "Handsaws Today" link didn't work. Said something about a damaged file. As for saying something good, nice page, I like how you laid things out. Few minor gnats here and there is not a problem. -- Jack Using FREE News Server: http://Motzarella.org http://jbstein.com |

I've run in to that a few times using my filter program... usually a reload works, but once in a blue moon it doesn't. Puckdropper -- On Usenet, no one can hear you laugh.
