There is a 32kb text "limit" per page, because some browsers may have problems with edit.
But you just got a warning about it, nothing other. But it good to hold under the limit, so it can been used by all browsers.
So for pictures or graphics there is not an issue per page?
So we could have like 3 - 320 x 240 jpgs and perhaps 1 - 640 x 100 for a marquee header.
If folks are creative to put together a cab, then they probably can format a few pix per spec. 320 x 240 @ 72 dpi (for space respect. Or put a maximum size and somehow the page will format it to proper size. Then the viewer can click on a picture for a better look. It would seem smart to limit the number of pix per entry, or at least the total file sizes. Now just getting finished saying that, I think gosh it wuld be cool if we could have an area for video of if their cab blinks or moves or something, they can submit a video. Again they would have to get it into a format decided ahead of time. Quicktime (mpeg 4) seems to be about the best quality with the lowest bandwidth at this point. but I do not know if everyone can make that. But then again, if they coughed up 1500-2500 to make a cab then they can afford $30 for quicktime pro which will convert to any flavor they like.
Ok just some thoughts...
It would be great if the page looked like a flyer. so the marquee would be at the top and then text on the left and some pictures on the right.
The input
It would be nice if it was set up in a way that one could choose a bkg color, text color.
Then have a list of pull downs that related to the possibilities. Then a section for other so if someone has really done something out of the box, they could hilight that.
