Yeah man, that's the good stuff (tribute to my mom)
I have a ton of work left to do on my website for mom (thousands of photos already scanned in, need to put on web) but I made some videos with music of her.

My first attempt had way more music then photos (and were mainly taken from grainy dvd stills which were originally 8mm's).

My last two are ok, but not near what I plan on, but worth tossing out I suppose:
(the links basically go to a page which you right click and DL the videos). I think they are roughly 6-8meg videos.

http://www.ourmom.net/good.html
http://www.ourmom.net/movie2.html

I have a ton of info and pics and other things I will be adding in the coming weeks (mainly between july 30-august 9). But it is a start. She passed away Dec 21, 2004 (the first attempt at video was movie.html but again was just a test).

At any rate mom - as my first video stated: you went home, I went to pieces. You were a good woman. We all miss ya.

1. I'm on dialup, so not sure I can check it out, but this deserves a kick

It's great you're doing this, and I think you'll find it will help you, too. Obviously she was a great woman. RIP Straight Story's mom, and peace to you as well.

Edit: You may find that changing your subject line to "Please take a look at my site paying tribute to my late mother" would encourage more replies. Not criticising, mind you; just a suggestion.

2. Thanks
She meant the world to me, so much more then I can write of here. She was a good woman. And when I pass on I hope someone will say of me I was a good man.

My life has been hell and heaven for 9 years, a mix of great things and terrible ones. This is my therapy, and I sure as hell need it :)
