I agree with this, and I reply to every request that I have in my collection. It's always made new roses, hearts etc. And everytime we get closer to a holiday, some skilled artist make something related. I'm meaning that request for the same things over and over again is getting a bit boresome. > I suppose the page is ok, but personally I think your files on it are a > bit small.

Some are small, some are large, some are HUGE! I think it's better this way, because if you are looking for something special, you can use the indexing and your browsers find button.
