Hi Chris Actually, as Bill points out, "stop the presses" is correct in this sense. It refers to when a late breaking important news story would come in to a newspaper after the edition was already on the printing press. They'd stop the printing presses to update.
The image at the bottom is just a plain old transparent gif with a black mask. I'm not wild about how the mask shows over a light background, but no mask leaves jaggedy edges on the hands. It's a tradeoff. As for the menu titles, I know the common wisdom is to make them straightforward, but since this is a site for a comic musician and supposed to be fun I thought it would be all right to play. The pages are light and few, so it's hard to get too lost. If many people disagree, I might reconsider. Thanks!
