|  The Web arrives on your TV! This month Sony and Philips will ship WebTV Set-top boxes that will enable Web browsing on your television set. For approximately $300 and $19.95 a month, you can have email and internet access from your couch, bed, kitchen, or bathroom. WebTV Networks Inc. of Palo Alto has designed a Web Browser that works with a remote control... and it's much easier to use than Netscape or Explorer. Look out world.. the Web is on it's way and soon every John & Jane Smith will want to be a Web publisher. Why am I telling you this? Because I work for WebTV, and this is the main reason I have spent so little time updating Pixelsight. I'be been spending the last year working on the look of the WebTV Browser interface. In the future I will be formatting all the pages in Pixelsight to look good on WebTV. I will also be adding tutorials, tools, and features for making your pages look awesome on the TV.  | ||

to go live soon! I want to thank the thousands of users that have been beta testing Pixelsight. I hope you have enjoyed faster access and the improved user-interface. I am continually fixing bugs and improving the reliability of the service, in preperation for that day sometime soon, when I will replace the old Pixelsight with the new beta service. I must warn you that the service will probably slow down once that happens, but it shouldn't be as bad as the old service. If it gets unreasonably slow, I will probably create payed subscriptions on dedicated servers to guarantee faster access. At that time I will add more features like custom animations, and full page creation for subscribers. |

these images?  Remember! This is a free service, and I will only keep it free as long as everyone is sticking to the usage guidelines. If you use graphics created at Pixelsight you absolutely must give credit on your site with the Pixelsight logo graphic, and you must register in the Pixelsite directory (which is now working by the way); especially if you are creating a commercial or business site! If you do not do these things, I will disable your account and access from your host machine. I ask nothing from you but a little advertising in exchange for cool graphics. Fair enough?
