17-3-00, Maybe
you noticed, maybe not, but I optimised the images on this page so the page loads a lot
faster. The page was first around 40kb, but now it is around 20kb, so that means you can
load the page double so fast!
16-3-00, finally
after a few hours of work I uploaded the new design, at which you are now looking, :-).
The site is also renamed from 'The new eels tabs site' to '3speed', which is my favourite
eels song. This also means that the new URL for this page is www.3speed.cjb.net, you can still use the old URL
though. Please mail me what you think of the new
design!
