Well this is it, I guess. I'll give this a go, just to have somewhere I can send folks who'd like to see (or whom I would like to visit) my "from scratch" web pages. "From scratch" means I start with an empty Leaf Pad file and I write out the HTML and muck about until I end up with something that pleases me. Graphics are created in the same way, but in GIMP. My heart aches hourly for PhotoImpact, but until I can once again run windoze on my laptop, Linux is my OS...and Wine does not run PhotoImpact. GIMP isn't bad, I've been using it for several weeks now. My learning curve has softened a bit...

Just a few working buttons at the moment, the rest will come with time. The credited folks at page bottom? Those links ARE active, because giving credit where credit is due is one of those things, moral things, I believe in very deeply. If you're into, or would like to give making your own pretties a go, hop over to either place. Their stuff is free, royalty-free, and it's lovely. I've been utilizing Outlaw by Design's tubes for about 12 years, she does phenomenal work in Poser and PSP. Pngimg is new to me, but what a find! Well worth a look.

See how I ramble on? That's the Gemini holding the reins. ;) Now I shall toddle off and see if I can make this all work, little by slow. My pages aren't made for any purpose (currently) except that I love to build them. It's a gentler addiction than some I've known. Thanks for dropping by, hope you'll check back to see what be new.
