Check them out at: http://www.freewebs.com/blacksheepspy/

Slow bandwidth for free web host. So patience.

An updated. Happy with my laptop except for one stuck pixel! Arghh!!!! Only visible when screen colour is black. A bright blue pixel at the mid-bottom. It's quite sticky and tricky to change another set. Sigh...

There's a sizzling sound when I placed my ear on the keyboard. Very, very faint sound like something cooking on a frying pan. I'm okay with it.

Good god that site is terrible. The only other sites I've ever seen that force your browser to be huge are porn sites. That should tell you something right there.

Thanks, iDork.

Sorry, parsec_kadets. Gotta force you to look at a baby's buttock. You consider that pornography. Anyway, it's a free web host, so they might sneek a few porno ads along the way. But I have yet to come across one. Let me know if you really come across these sites. I would like to take a look at them. I can't please everyone with my design but I do try to keep it simple.

Pamelah, I think SARS is contagious through internet. Let me check with my Ministry Of Health here and I will get back to you. At the meantime, wear an eye mask while you surf the internet.

My free web hosting site has been blocked for overwhelming hits. Kinda embarrass and surprise at the same time. Anyway, I have changed the url to http://homepage.mac.com/blacksheepspy/

Notice I didn't mention the butt at all. I'm annoyed about the fact that it resizes the window. The reason I said only porn sites do that is because it's really stupid and annoying. I don't care if I look at a baby's butt, I just don't my browser window to be resized so it takes up the entire screen. It's annoying!

Apologies to everyone. First, my mini-site is frozen and now censored.

And especially to parsec_kadets, sorry for annoying you with the resizing. It won't happen with the link I provide below. My site all down for the above-mentioned reasons.

Anyway, a sure bet that you can view my 17" Pictures at http://www.spymac.com/gallery/showga...&si=blacksheep

So all is not lost.
