Re: FN-FORUM Bored .... (flash sites)

date posted 31st October 2000 20:49

I can't remember the name of the site but I once visited a similar site
where you signed up as a kind of reseller of flash sites. They were all done
as templates and there were quite a few styles to choose from and sadly,
they were actually quite good!

I'll try find it, don't know whether it took off.


I don't know if anyones interested but I've finished the hotel site I was
working on.

http://www.parkdrivehotel.co.uk

Ps Check out the model in the bedroom shot. Its me!!

I not only designed, wrote and produced their brochure and website but I
appeared in it too!!
