Yes, I know - this design is rather blah. Reminds me of Paris.

Anyway - just a heads up, a new design for this blog (and I hope to get the photogallery online again, but it's a killer on bandwidth) is coming up - soon.

And here it is.

Of the forty or fifty "looks" that Pave has sported this is the cleanest and easiest to read yet.

Nice work, compliments to all involved.

I like it a lot!

Very nice. In fact, if I ever wanted to travel to France, I could just visit this page and read Stéphane's posts and it would be just like going there! :-)

Oui, oui!

WOW, I think it loads much faster....looks are secondary. Ummm, Stephene, before you go bonkers, I mean that in the web design, not women!!!!

doesn't remind me of Paris..........no dog shit

you forget Pato..

The design is rather "blah" - reminds me of Paris"

... or British food.

Jimbo :
Please to see that you like it !

andy :

All right. We still miss some women here !

i concur, paris is an amazing europeon capitol and western cultural treasure.

great layout. it's rare to see such plausable design from an individual whose obvious mental short comings and hang ups don't hamper their
ability to code. kudos.

To Stéphane (who is a man), I keep forgetting you are a guy. Until I found that out a few weeks ago, I had fantasies about what that saucy French girl named Stéphane looked like. I'm now glad I never asked. :-)

Why, Freddy - you flatter me.

Jimbo :

You too ! I still don't understand why everyone think that I'm a girl. Maybe some macho spirit...

If you want some evidences, maybe I could send you some photo of myself ?

The lower part please.

Every Stéphane that I have ever heard of has been a girl. Then again every Dominique I have ever heard of has been a girl too.

So what's the deal with French giving their male children the names of woman strippers. I don't understand, is this some bizarre French custom?

What's wrong with Bob, Tom, Ed, Jim... ?

Why the fo-fo poodle names?

On a related note, what's the deal with americans calling Jack John , Richard Dick (I love that one), or William Bill ?

zoomerx:

I think the Brits did that to us.

Jimbo

How many stéphane (girl) did you hear about ?

Some bizarre french custom ? No, every country has its way to give a certain kind of name... that's all.

"What's wrong with Bob, Tom, Ed, Jim... ?"

Maybe it's too common ?

I know Stéphane, I'm just rattling your cage as we say here in The States.

I would no more expect the French to name their kids "Bob" or "Ed" as I would the Chinese name to their sons "Pierre". :-)

I'm really sorry to say this, but in France kids with anglo-saxon names, like Kevin or Brandon, are usually little rednecks, whose mothers spent too much time in front of the tv set watching soaps.
Stéphane is a male name. You may mix up with Stéphanie.

"Stephane" is also a girl's name, but not as common as Stephanie.
