Digital BW, The Print

Mike,

I also enjoyed your images on the website.  But I have to agree the
load time is excessive.   With my DSL it took about 30 seconds during
which there's a black screen.  I don't think you get anyone with a
telephone connection to see your work.

Developing with a fast system makes it hard to see what others will
see.  I started my website back when I had a 33k modem so speed 
was of utmost importance.  Now it could probably stand some
spiffing up though.

Nice images though.
