I'm quite proud of my new website.
Although the design is hardly groundbreaking, I'm pleased that the whole thing is fully automated (and free).
To elaborate: I wanted to be able to check up on the state of the goldfish while away from home. With only a dial-up connection I can't have an “always on” webcam server, but it's not like I'll be checking up constantly anyway, so a daily update is enough. Anyway, details of how I did it are at the bottom of the site's main page.

Like I said, it's not a masterpeice, so if anyone has any ideas that would improve the layout, I'm open to suggestions... (especially a way of blocking over the banner-ad somehow)

Nicely... That's some good hacking-about-with-stuff-til-it-works!
You probably can't get rid of the banner though, those free hosting companies are pretty strict about them.

Hmm, thought as much. I had tried drawing a plain white box that would overlap it, but FrontPage didn't like it and I'm no html master.
Anyway, the proof of the pudding is in the eating - I am in London for the weekend, so if the pictures are different by half-three this afternoon, its worked.

Hooray, it worked. I even phoned home to make sure it had disconnected itself - and it has. How satisfying such small victories are.

I can't get over the fact that you have a goldfish called Alan...

Hehehe. I feel I should point out that it wasn't my decision. But bear in mind that there are a few less fish than there used to be: Boris, Pauline and Jeffo have all gone “belly-up” over the past couple of years.
Very traumatising.
