Jan,
Thanks for the Welcome, sometimes MSN is very slow.
I was knocking at the door and wasn't in yet, so I came back the day you let me in and I got detained with too much that had to be done. I was able to take a break now and came for a visit.
I know the school projects, etc., is going to be really tough for you. I will look forward to this summer when you can have more time to play. You place looks very nice. You've done a great job, and it is such good experience too.
Only one suggestion - Your side menu text - Your Welcome needs to be shorter. Only name the items in your menu panel so they don't exceed too many letters. Keep it to one line only. The wider that area is, the more it takes away from the main part of your page too. I try to keep mine at a very minimum which isn't easy. The backgrounds fit much better too.
Bet it was fun getting your place all fancied up too. You've done a great job.
Hugs
Jacque
