The website is now on a red light as of this update. I also got rid of the flashing green light, because it just doesn't make sense to have a flashing green if there's a red status, and it would be too confusing to keep. I may try to add 32 pictures before the move, but who knows how much time I'll have. |
|
January 27, 2005 |
