Oh my God! An Update! For the past month I've been doing some major customizing - on my new house. Instead of cutting heads and painting vests, I've been cutting molding and painting walls. Things are starting to settle down a little, and I should be able to get back to some "real" customizing soon.

I also did some minor site tweaking. The imagemap graphic on the main page now has pop-up messages that appear when you position your cursor over a link. Also, the navbar along the left side of the page has links that change color on mouse rollover.
