thank you so much thats really helpful. :up: oh Becky I have been offered a fast track to second yr on the HNC at Northbrook but I don't think from what I have seen and heard that I am going to learn anything new or progress much there. There's a lot of staffing/student issues and cutbacks...

For me I def. like the top two business cards. The angled ones just don't read well with the exception of the third one down from the top left side. The websites Im not sure about...I love the slider -its a great idea. The site is simple, easy to read and clear. With the "about" page I get an...
