How dare you post that on here????
I have work to do!!!
<smile>
as a huge Stephan Grappelli fan, his playing hypnotised me - first class (but time consuming..lol)
now ..to the site
fabulous!
but here is what I would suggest (if i can concentrate while listening to "there will never be another you")..the picture jumps out on the home page but then gets in the way of the writing on the other pages... i would change alpha to a lower percent to fade it more so the writing shows better.\
good job!
<edit> are you the musician?? </edit>

lower the apha. I'm not really skilled in image manipulation. What I did here was
1. make the photo transparent.
2. put it on the website, it looked terrible against the dark backgound.
3. Added a layer of gray underneath the photo and adjusted the transparency of that layer.
Do you know what I'm doing? I don't. Can you help?
Lost in pixel land,
steve

re: background you could set it as centred (horizontally and vertically) and no-repeat

There's no way I know of to have an image magnify. Opera does that on its own. I think the repeating thing works okay, best solution until something else comes along.

Switching Style Sheets? Here is the answer my audience would likely have: "Hm, maybe it is time I changed those drab bed sheets. Let's try it. Hey, this button doesn't change my sheets at all! This website sucks!"

Your site is one of the best sites I've ever seen that understands that "less is more."
I still haven't learned that in regards to my own site.
Great site!

The 'keep it simple' thing throughout the site works really well and I think any more content than that would be too much.

you feeling okay Dan?
