I just finished the first 'beta' of the newspaper for my website. I didn't realize it would take that long just to make one page! http://www.crazy-news.net/newspapers/newsp...newspaper1.html What do you think of it?

not bad, I only have 2 suggestions:
- get us a printable version!!
- there are some minor bugs in the table, could you fix them?

Amusing - when do we get the next page?

The text in the grey field, at the top can be a bit difficult to read, because the bright colors to the left are so - well, bright.

Thank you for the positive replies. I will try to fix the table a bit more, but I have now exams, so I don't have much time at the moment.
But it's hard to make such a newspaper in html. Firefox and Internet Explorer display it slightly different and if you increase the text size it will get much bigger and full of bugs.
It would be a lot easier to make it an image or pdf file, but that's bad for the search engines.
I will add the next pages soon and make a printable and email-friendly page certainly, maybe just by adding the page to mambo, that would be a lot easier, but it would make the page very, very big or i should make it in a pop-up page.
I make up all the stories of myself, and that's a lot of work, especially that English is not my native language.
I came to the idea of pink Virgin Express because a friend of mine made a video with an animation of a Virgin plane flying in the sky. It was one of my first stories.
