Hopefully the pages should be moving soon, when my friend gets his box up
and running 24/7.. Shouldn't be too long, and then I'll have them on a
less lagged server, with no quota :) So I'll be free to experiment more
with the page and hopefully create something damned cool, of course still
keeping to my minimalist standards :)

I don't know whether or not I'll print it out, depends on how long it
is:) OTOH, stick with the fonts that look good when printed out, like
Gurth said. I mean, unless you've got this thing formatted in Wing-Dings
or something, I'm not going to be too worried about what fonts you use:)

Again, Gurth's right, it's best to simply do it and get it over with:)
We'll either like it or we won't, but that shouldn't keep you from
putting it out, 'cause you'll never know one way or the other:)
