Well, I wasn't the only one who thought Google Page Creator sucks because they discontinued it this past summer (2009).  You'd think I would have been on the ball and moved the weenie somewhere else, but that did not happen.  I considered static hosting, but since I already have Google Apps installed on flamingweenie.com, I left it here.

Now one thing that's exceedingly curious is that GIF files are magically converted to PNG.  You can see this for yourself by downloading any of them in my Files section.  Normally I wouldn't care, except that it might confuse browsers and it destroys animations -- intentional?  So the little dancing guy above is using some crazy URL I dug up and then popped the and authkey query parameter off of.  I have no idea if it will continue to work.

And look, it's only been 2 years since I udpated the site (not 4)!  Go me!
