Well, you all have seen my webpage, enough Barbie pink to last you
the rest of the year, but I love it. I'm a lame ass and don't have
many pictures of my own work, but I have lots of informative and fun
text. AND I like working on my page, I like adding to it. I just
use one of those cheesy templates for people with NO computer skills
and I get by allright. No flash, no cool digi-pictures (and no lame
pictures either, I hate it when folks have these lame ass pictures in
their portfolios, if it dont make you look good, don't use it!)

Although I admit, when I look at other's mehndi pages, I immediately
click on their gallery section, to see what sort of work they do. I
don't ever read the stuff on their pages, why therefore do I assume
people read the stuff on my page *sigh*

Another thing that bugs me to NO end are henna artists who do not
clearly state where they are from and how you can contact them at the
beginning of the page. I've been to pages where there is nothing but
a phone number, and hell, even then you'll get an area code only if
you're lucky!

I also dislike weird fonts in a text part that the creator has
intended for you to read. Use Arial, Helvetica or Times, anything
else with swirly curly cues are fancy and nice, but don't expect
people to read it for very long. Our eyes are damaged enough by
sitting in front of these machines without someone trying to be cool
and use a font that's hard to read.

God I'm in a witchy mood tonight aren't I? I guess I'm entitled,
it's my birthday tomorrow. I'll be a geriatric 23.

Oh, P.S. something funny... my grandmother is kind of in her dotage
and she doesn't pronounce o Sama Bin Laden's name right; she calls
him "O Sodom" you know, as in Sodom and Gemorrah.. hehe
