    You can do up any of my tuts whenever ya want, bro. I think most of them are .doc files but there are a few that are inline, web-style...if you want to do those as well.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
