"pop without that bitter after-taste"

Continuing the updating....

Added: The long-absent "articles" page. Sadly, it seems to have ceased being added to in 2001 -- so if anyone has any articles they want to see put up there, send 'em in!

Enjoy!

Updates!

Yeah, that's right, the page is only up a matter of days and there's updates. Like growing a garden, this is -- gotta keep pulling weeds all the time.

Anyway, thanks so much to Viner Richard, who reminded me that GIFs look a lot better than JPGs, and don't distort so much. My "photoshop" is somewhat limited, so since it defaults to JPGs, I usually just make those up. Anyway, I've found a better way to do it now and much of the main graphics on the site are now in GIF. The rest I'll convert eventually -- if anyone can do a batch that'd help considerably!

And the other addition: The changing of "video" to "a/v club" (as in audio/visual club) so we can put MP3s and other goodies on the page. There's one there now, "Disappointed" from the Conan O'Brien show a few years back. With the band's permission I'll look to putting up other special MP3s soon.

Any other feedback? Love to hear it....

UPDATE: (to the update) - Also added, an NPR radio blurb from 2001 that discusses Ivy and ... the Vine!
