[TheForge] website

I used Adobe Pagemill for our website. It's under 2MB and fits in the free
5MB web space that comes with our internet account. It's a nice program,
but I have not figured out how to set up slide shows with it. Pagemill also
does the cgi scripting, but I am not ambitious enough to set it up.
