And i would like to know your feelings on the black border...it was a lucky coincidence, and a has become a fetish/fad among the few of us in the club that still print B&W... thansk for your comments all, kostas _____________________________________________________________________________________ http://www.mailbox.gr ÁðïêôÞóôå äùñåÜí ôï ìïíáäéêü óáò e-mail. http://www.thesuperweb.gr Website ìå ÁóöáëÝò Controlpanel áðü 6 Euro êáé äþñï ôï domain óáò!
