Multimedia issues:
You can turn the music off by putting the synth of your SoundBlaster on mute
to fully enjoy watching and listening to the videos you may want to turn
the sound back on though..:-)
On the page of medicinal
flora, you can choose your own background music
from this site's 4 megabyte audio-archive in wav, mp3, midi and
RealAudio formats. This site also contains audio-recordings of birds of prey,
goats, wild rabbits, and various native birds of Curaçao.
Website size and navigation:
This website contains 11 MB and over 100 pages courtesy of Tripod.com
and contains links to various other sites of "Earth First !! Curaçao" for
a total
of 1285 pages and a total size of 250 MB. So far 627 pages are done, and
149+ are under construction, and a few hundred are reserved for future use
links to all pages are rather obvious, but most times you won't see a little
"hand"
For example: go back to the EF! Curaçao main page
and click on the image of the buzzard
which is the link to "raptors of Curaçao".
You don't see a "hand", but the link IS
active.
