Comments: In the year since I was here last, you sure have improved the site! It's like a treasure trove of new Mystara products, just waiting to be read. Bruce Heard's Heldann stuff, which looks as if it constitutes a virtual GAZ 15, was especially exciting to find.
Anyway, I just leeched the entire site, and I thought I should point out two links that didn't work. I think they were both in the Hollow World section - kogolor.html and nthampir.html. Sorry I couldn't be more specific.
Other than those minor flaws, keep up the good work! The only other thought I had is that white text means when you look at the page after saving it, it tends to look blank. You could fix this simply by setting the background colour to black in the >BODY< tag at the top of each page.
Man, it's good to be back in the world of Mystara! : - )

Comments: I think you have done a great job. It looks very complete and well organized. One thing I have noticed that is lacking (or couldn't find) are maps. I would have a much easier time getting a better idea about the size of the different nations and where exactly are they in relation to each other.
Otherwise I have found this very useful and I am considering adding many things to my campaign.
Thanks

Comments: I like the backgrounds, but don't forget that the light over dark palette ultimately works against the reading of long pages of html. So, I'd say you should lighten the backgrounds up a little bit, and do everything you can to someday change the font colour from white to black.
Ah! Almost forgot the indexing part! It would help a lot if you could index the sections with subdirectories.
Ex:
The Geography Page:
www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/5304/geog/index.html
Of course, that'd mean that you could obviously throw all the geography-related material into that subdir, giving a little relief to your cluttered rootdir. :-)
I hope I didn't offend you with my "suggestions". Bye!

Page rating: OK
Possible improvements: Different background pictures
Comments: It's nearly impossible to read your page. You seem to have some marvellous material on it, but the background colours blend in with the link colours making them near unreadable. When I turn the background off, the text is white and so is the background, making normal text unreadable. I'd give a more thorough evaluation if it wasn't so cussed hard to read everything.

Comments: I agree with Porphy, you should nuke the popups. Add a Geoguide at the bottom of every page if you are too cheap to pay for Geoplus (like me). Geocities says Geoguides only work when at the top of the page, but they are lying. Oh, and the new "table" format is quite cool. I wish I could find time (and instructions) to set it up on my pages. Oh, Porphy, you don't annoy me btw. You still only amuse me. Sorry fella, you'll have to work harder to reach perfection.

Comments: Hi, Excellent resource you
have here (if somewhat daunting...) i couldn't help but notice that
you have a version of Martial arts weapon mastery that i posted
about a year ago, (the one by redfish) and i was wondering if you
want an up to date one, and while i am at it weapon mastery tables
for the rest of the weapons from the AD&D game not represented
in D&D plus a few more. actually i guess i have a few articles
that might be handy...That is if'n you wantsem...I haven't finished
looking around but what about grab bags of zipped files...rather
than having to view them on the web.
Thanks for your time

Comments: It is brilliant to find such a strong D&D following out there. I never could be bothered to learn the AD&D system so was pretty gutted when TSR effectively decided to end their support of the original one.
Always thought it would still be the most popular one around today if it was still supported.
Anyway, great page. Good to look at, quick to load and full of great info. Look forward to using some of the suggestions.

Comments: George Wendt? Sergei
Rachmaninov? Where do we get these slags. . .
Firstly, lately it seems like dudes
are calling for more pictures. Add more pictures, then they'll come
back to complain about how long it takes for the page to load.
Ignore them. That's one of the reasons I'm writing another
evaluation. Popups should be
Nuked. That would've been my "improvement"
suggestion (again), if the form didn't force me to choose.
But, speaking of adding more pictures, that's the other reason I'm
screeding again, and it's why I chose "indexing." Surprised Marco
of all people doesn't know who generates the incongruous stuff in
the Almanacs (btw, Marco, "everyone" knows that Garth is
Rheddrian/Benekander. Étienne has too much class to pick a name
like "Garth," and we already know that Rheddrian goes for
"Poindexter" like names. Where was I?)
Oh, yah: I surfed by looking for image files (specifically a gif or jpg of the Black Eagle Baron's coat of arms). in between my vacation from generating screeds (such as this one. "When will I shut up?" everyone asks). . .well, never mind. Point is, does this place have an image file? If so, I couldn't find the link to it (btw, while I'm babbling incoherently, the map banner which loads with the page is exceptionally cool. Do you have that without the "Mystara" splashed across it?).
I can't believe my unedited Thyatis and Econ rants have been preserved for posterity. Some remarks about the above:
"always knew the page was here" Like Athena born fully grown from Zeus' head, I always knew the page was here.
"The best I visited this week" With the exception of "Lambau Cam" at the Mud Bay Slacker's homepage (oughta be ashamed of 'emselves, though, not getting back to the big show an loosin it last year). (N.B. I was going to say "except for the pages visited while surfing the internet for smut" but folks probably would have thought I wasn't joking. Well, I guess everyone needs a hobby. I have one, though: annoying Solmyr.) Oops. Better get back to work. I owe someone some Events ( Once the Super Bowl is done, Hervé).

Comments: I really like the layout,
tables have the double edged sword of not displaying until the full
page is loaded which can take a while, but hey, I use them to death
so I can't complain :)
The only annoying thing about the page is that Geocities pop up
thing. Can you get rid of it at all? With the wee transparent thing
at the bottom, it's enough to remind me I'm on geocites. The pop up
thing just makes me hate them :)
keep up the excellent work! (I'm glad someone archived the World In
Flames timeline...gave me the wiggins reading it, was
cool...)
