Hmmm...
The pictures are simple-Rt-Click, save as. Keep them all in the same folder.
All your links are
absolute:'http://www.geocities.com/buddychai2/SenatorVotes.html";
They will have to be changed, but most editors can do this with
"Find/replace".
Remove the <javascript> tags and anything else "added by server".
If you happened to want to change the background, and learn the
difference between "it's" and "its", I know a guy who can help.
It's possible someone will come along with a wholesale moving scheme, so
keep your ears open.
Go Daddy has good prices for web space.
