FYI: Counters is a no-no according to webpagesthatsuck.com...it's like if you go to WalMart and you're the 1,123,456 customer, it's like...who cares. I'm not saying don't put a counter if you want one, it's your site...put one if you want. :D it's just not considered professional from a design standpoint. With personal sites anything goes...what I'm talking about is in relation to professional sites with professional touches (not "personal website" stuff).
