Ok, NOW I get what Brian meant by "the title in the browser window"! Sorry, Brian, I´m a bit slow at times...
I hadn´t even looked up there... It is a missed umlaut code, to be sure; I´ll fix it. I seem to have a lot to learn about how search engines work; Emily gave me another tip. I´m afraid I have disregarded the <head> section of my html:s entirely.
Shawna, the word "Smorgasbord" in Swedish would in itself be entirely acceptable, only it is littered with those darn umlauts!..:-)
I´ll see what I can do about the ragged GIF problem; I see it now when I use a more standard screen (mine is a 1200x1600 job, so not very typical for most viewers).
Again, thank you!

Congratulations on a simple, elegant site Per.
I sympathize with your difficulties in categorizing your images. It seems though that most of your images will fit into several common headings, (nature, people, architecture-or my favorite at the moment "the constructed environment") Perhaps a "Smorgasbord" section would be appropriate for all your independent, uncatagorizable images, at least it would work in English. Perhaps in Swedish this would be cheesy or even uncouth ;-)
Two tiny technical notes:
Your title gif appears to be compressed a little too much. The edges of the text are ragged instead of sharp.
The titles of your HTML pages (the titles found at the top of the browser window, not the titles in the pages themselves) should probably not include umlats (the bit over the O in your surname). Though I enjoy the great variety in language, and normally encourage the use of such characters, I would keep them out of HTML page titles. Many search engines, including Google, list the page title from the browser window, not titles found in gif images or even in the text on the page. Because many people only have standard character sets enabled, their systems will replace the non-standard characters with garbledygook.
Take Care and Happy Shooting, Shawna http://lightwriting.net
