That's about the same thing I see. Part of south east US is visible for a few seconds then the random pictures appear. That website is a neat idea but it's not standards compliant therefor unusable to many f us. A web page with user, email, city, and possibly a link to some website is all that's needed IMO. Those who want to get together can simply use email. I would not object if anybody wants to "advertise" their business address there. -- Rafael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
