I was going to say, Video is an AUDIO/VISUAL medium. Html is more suited to TEXT.
The piece took a LOONNG time to download on my slow 56k copper wire connect. 
Are we there yet?

Thanks for all the help. Seems like most comments were text related. 
That IS a major problem when making both DVD and QuickTime versions. 
What's very readable on the DVD doesn't show up well enough in the 
QuickTime movie. I noticed that the full screens of text were not up 
long enough. On the other hand, I plan to point out to viewers that 
they can pause the movie and study specific parts with the slider - 
just like those virtual home tours created with panoramic photos.

Anyway, I think movies like this one would be better with a spoken 
description of the home, but I would prefer that the home owner find 
someone to write the description and read it for the microphone. I 
wrote the text for this one and put it on screen just to be able to 
finish the demo ASAP.

Thanks,
Steve R.
