Re: Tourist for a day
At first the index page put me off a bit - I didn't get it... then I liked it and the presentation matched the tone. No problems with the text over in this kind of thing... glad I upgraded my Flash on FIrefox but I couldnt make the page work just clicking on it in Netscape. ann Cotty wrote: On 17/5/11, Bob W, discombobulated, unleashed: I agree with you about the white text, but it's only a one-off for me, not something I'm likely to do regularly, and it's just a template from Lightroom, so I'm not going to try and change it.
