Nice links Eric, many thanks Posted by Nick Case on Oct 16, 2008 at 04:38 PM | #

I’m glad Nick likes them, but for me, the links are kind of pointless, Eric. The problem is that they put you in the middle of the page, but the page still has to load the graphics that appear above it. Thus, the page keeps shifting up, meaning that it takes just as much time as it does to check the games out directly. It’s a good idea, but unless other folks have their browsers load differently than mine, it really isn’t worth the time you have to put into it. Posted by Larry Levy on Oct 16, 2008 at 05:45 PM | #
