I discovered another whole chapter on Dreamweaver 8 (printed out from e-book) -- getting slightly disenamoured by Cascading Style Sheets etc now..... i may just upload the images and add other bits later.
NB is anybody else with TalkTalk? How good are they at handling FTP?

So ....i ended up watching these films last night :-

'Martyrs' - more dross from the Saw/Hostel school of sado-schock...with a silly angle about 'transfiguration' sewn into the skin.

'Slumdog Millionaire' - very effective + emotive, dead-centre Danny B. I don't get the 'feelgood factor' everybody raved about? - 2 people got lucky; what about the rest of the overpopulation we just glimpsed in hell? I'm in a wild hurry to frget those spooned-out eyes : (

'Irreversible' - totally brilliant French film (with nigh unendurable scenes, the worst imo being woman's face crunched into concrete post-rape).
The ending (reversed) is the best thing in cinema the way it finishes in screen flicker. I think that *flicker* is the best thing ever put onto the screen... it makes perfect --- APPALLING --- sense.
The queasy, rolling camera and sound at the start are unparalleled descriptive translation into film; that part of the movie could really stand alone as kinetic art.
Genius stuff--- total genius.
