need to know how it loads in dialup.
I'm on cable so I don't know.

15-20 seconds for the first image, 12 for second. Not exactly "crisp".

Erm ... And that's not your family ... is it? ;-)

That's what I wanted to know thanks.
Damn cable company upgraded the system and I just tested out at 4030kbps.

With that speed, I could do everything I needed to on my remote server.

That test is completely unreliable. I just got 5000 K bytes/sec (40800
Kbps) on 512k ADSL line.

With that speed, I could do everything I needed to on my remote server.

Not wise - you'd need to be careful about backing up.

I suggest you put an image preloader in it
Not really sure how it works, but i suppose other people here do.
Also, I suggest that you change:
<a href="#" onMouseOver="document.main.src='cast2.gif'"
onMouseOut="document.main.src='dhd2.gif'">
to
<a href="#" onClick="return false;"
onMouseOver="document.main.src='cast2.gif'"
onMouseOut="document.main.src='dhd2.gif'">

This prevents the browser to scroll all the way to the top if you click on
the link.

Eventually, you could make it:
<a href="noJS.html" onClick="return false;"
onMouseOver="document.main.src='cast2.gif'"
onMouseOut="document.main.src='dhd2.gif'">

So that browsers without JS go to noJS.html
I suppose you don't really need that here, but may be useful for other stuff

Thanks for the clues.
