Page layout and design by Keith Newman using Microsoft's FrontPage 98 &
2000, Ulead Photo Impact, Adobe Photoshop, ScanMaker Plus from Microtek, my
PCs (one of which
died in service and needed replacing) which sit astride
my desk competing for my attention. Perhaps now I've emptied the garage I'll
spend more time looking through the real window on the world rather than into
these beguiling 17 inch imposters. Page layout optimised for Microsoft
Explorer 5.0.
A special thanks to Paula's son, teenage wonderkid Brook Novak for the final code
for autorun and the sound Jukebox in the multimedia section. |
