    Here's my Desktop X Frontend (don't laugh!)

    I've spent a lot of work on this baby. Everything lines up perfectly for the screen, with just enough space on the far left for me to put the KIA logo and the Spectra logo vertically. I didn't include them in my little website demo because it would require a little bit more coding than I feel like dealing with.

    A few notes:

    * This site that I've made requires you to have at least 1024x768 resolution. I didn't think about anything smaller, because just about everyone uses this resolution now anyway. If you don't.. try hitting F11 to maximize the screen, that might help some.

    * The clips seem a bit off because I had to go back and remake all of them from scratch for the website. Rest assured, they don't skip, clip, or mismatch at all on my finished side.

    * All of the buttons were designed from pictures taken from the Animation factory website (www.animfactory.com) and made using Paint Shop Pro 7 and Animation Shop 3.

    * My personal made project took about 3 weeks to customize.. This website took about 8 hours.

    * The images on the website are extremely pixelated and compressed to make up for low bandwith and to help increase the download speeds. These images are on average 1.2MB .BMP's on my finished end.

    * PLEASE let me know what you think! Should I even keep trying?

    Thanks guys.. you all ROCK!

    I don't have a touchscreen, so its just using a mouse. Actually, its using a touchpad, but its all the same. Does anybody know of a way to increase the size of the mouse pointer? Its really small and hard to see.
