Ian, mate,
Whilst we're engaging in friendly, constructive
critiques here, I'll give ya the tip: We use those
little apostrophes when making a word possessive, as
in, "I think the site's background sucked", but when
making a word plural, the apostrophe is beyond
superfluity...it's downright inappropriate!. Be
careful with "its", though...only apostrophize for the
contraction of "it is", not the possessive.
