I'm really a little confused, now, though.... LOL... frustrated, confused... what's next, huh? From the looks of things, he is keeping the exact same template that I had changed it over to, months ago. The only changes that I see are the colors and some button images. I honestly hope there's more to it. The whole idea behind redesigning the site was to get better ad placement, I thought. The ads are still in the same place... maybe moved up a bit, since some of the things on the site have been removed. I really hope this isn't the extent of it, though. If this is all, I "know" I could have given Arbitrage Wise more bang for his buck. If ad placement was important, it would have looked more <a href="http://ndopinions.com" rel="nofollow">like this</a>. At least the site isn't all flash! There's hope for search engine optimization.

On a dual-screen setup, it centers itself across both of my screens and drops off the bottom of my screen, so I have to move and resize my browser each time. Ever wonder why the best *designers* always work from home? It's usually because they lack the business or production skills to be hired on by a real-life agency or design firm. Nobody ever said that you are competent just because you know how to use Flash or Photoshop. ;) I also love how Kyumoto’s website assumes you would like it to maximize itself.

I generally avoid sites with Flash as much as possible. They have a tendency of crashing my main computer (which is very old). They also tend to do very poorly in accessibility issues for the visually impaired. My two cents. There are more than SEO issues with using Flash.
