love? No, thats not the word... oh yes. I frown upon it.
I would wish that at least SOME geeks would avoid using sh*t software.
Even Apache on NT is better...
Personally I don't find anything wrong with Javascript; at least it's
not a crappy microsoftism. But certainly nobody with even half a clue
should be running IIS.
I still think it's a really nice website though.

FYI, I've already begun converting the site to PHP/Apache but like I said,
I'm not a programmer or a web developer so it's a slow job for me. I
orginally
built the site in ASP because I worked with an ASP developer that I could
ask
questions about areas that I was stuck on. It was simply a learning
experience
for me -that's all. Since I had a working page, I decided to put it up for
display
while I worked on my PHP conversion.
You guys crack me up -complaining and lecturing about the evils of IIS. Just
take a
look at the page for crying out loud, and forget about whether or not it's
running on
Linux or Windows. I couldn't care less about your opinions on IIS or Apache.
I'll
move it to a linux server as soon as I can. I'm a newb at webpage stuff, so
give me
fucking break.

Looking at, or not being able to look at, the page is pretty much the
point. For those of us who don't use Internet Exploder or Netscape, most
Windows-based HTML editors render a poorly-displayed or wholly
inaccessible site. My objections to IIS are not just theoretical, or
even theological. Your server is popping me a cookie every time I click
a link. Very occasionally cookies are useful, but only occasionally.
I leave JavaScript turned off, so I can't view the detail views
on your pages. In my browser, your site's frames don't align properly.
Everything is legible and visible, but not particularly cohesive.
Overall, it's a great first effort. Please don't take the suggestions &
criticism as condemnation. It's a very intelligent design & layout, it's
very simple, meaning fast to download, and attractive. Those are all
qualities that all the "right" software & servers on Earth can't
provide.
