		<description>Much nicer and yes, I did miss that clicking the links would go to a new page! Since I saw it all there, I wrongfully assumed they were in-page links! :)

BTW: Minor typo in &quot;Great Stamina&quot; page: cjheck</description>

		<description>Okay -- I&#039;ve made some additional changes to the Big List and added notes to all the passive skills that need them and about half the active skills. Lemme know what you think.</description>

		<description>Forgot to mention ...

shibumi: Yes, but then you have a snake loose in the house, and snakes are much harder to trick into being caught again. Believe me, I&#039;ve tried. :&gt; 

Once when I was home from college my mother was playing with my red-tailed boa, and he snuck off into the back of the couch when she went to answer the phone. She was terrified he&#039;d be hurt and I&#039;d be angry, so she cut the couch open with an Xacto knife (carefully) and pulled out all the stuffing until she found him.

Someone: Thanks for the offer. I know Perl reasonably well, but I&#039;m working with the SQL cra .. err .. code my husband wrote for me and his coding style is, shall we say, eccentric. (I&#039;m using the Template Toolkit 2 to generate most of my pages from the database on my end to cut down on database hits. The TT2 stuff is actually quite cool.)</description>

		<description>Hmm .. I really should have just stayed up a bit longer to give you guys the rundown on what I did. Although this has been valuable feedback -- apparently it&#039;s not very clear what I did! :&gt; 

I left the Big List page more or less as it was for now, but all of the links now go to seperate skill pages. Examples: &lt;a href=&quot;http://petopia.brashendeavors.net/html/skills/skills_bite.shtml&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Bite&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://petopia.brashendeavors.net/html/skills/skills_poisonspit.shtml&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Poison Spit&lt;/a&gt;. 

My thought was to sooner or later remove the unreadably long list at the bottom of the Big List page (leaving the tables and indices at the top of the page) -- but I thought it might be a good idea to leave it there for now for backwards-compatibility. As my husband says, though, the fact that there is more page there just begs you to scroll down instead of click. So maybe that was a bad idea. 

I&#039;m working now on a notes section for the individual skill pages -- what the skill is good for or how it interacts with other skills and such. That may or may not make it up before I start my cross-country drive later this week. But at least the skill list *is* updated now -- it was getting crufty.</description>

		<description>Yep, nice work but it still is a huuuuge page! :)

I like pages shorter, especial reference/information pages. Perhaps splitting that info between several pages? Or even using a bit of javascript to fold/unfold sections? Just a few thoughts!

BTW, if you need a hand on Perl, let me know: I&#039;ve worked quite a bit on it and, even though until yesterday it was like 2 years since I last used it, I eventually gave up on trying to do something in VBA and wrote a few simple perl scripts instead, so I un-rusted it a bit now! :)</description>

		<description>Hamsters can be slippery little buggers. I know because we once spent 3 hours looking for my brother&#039;s furry little escape artist. I was lucky enough to glance over my shoulder to see him sneaking around a room I had just thoroughly searched. They&#039;re smarter than they look.

Anyways, I like the changes you made to the page, especially the quick reference. I just have one suggestion. It&#039;s a reeeeeally long page and some &quot;Back to Top&quot; links would be helpful. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex5/jumptop.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Or a script like this.&lt;/a&gt;</description>
