Send them an email. Thats what I did with my current job - telling them how excited I was about the position, and how I'm looking forward to joining them and working as a team!

Just a matter of who they pick now. Nail biting time, lol.
Here you go, buy yourself a drink to calm your nerves.

Thats not a bad idea. Either that or think up a really good question you could have asked then phone them up and ask it tomorrow or the day after, phrased in such as way as you are pleased to accept their impending offer once they clear the question up.

The nice thing about being a web designer is that you could send them an HTML thank you note (CSS optional).

Some people are still against WYSIWYGs to this day. The trick is to know how to use them and to have some knowledge of coding. Using something like Dreamweaver when you haven't a clue about X-HTML is crazy.

This is why most people don't like 'em. Too many people think they're Web Designers/Developers. Give 'em notepad and they don't know what to do. You can have more fun by asking them about W3C. More blank looks.

HomeSite is better for hand coding in my opinion. Dreamweaver is only good for file handling (well, the stuff that I do anyway ).

Careful, we may bore everyone

I've always written in straight HTML using vi. I know who the W3C are (I think? the consortium?). But I have NO eye for artistic layout. I'm glad that y'all do!

Sending best wishes your way, Rincewind. We'll be nearly neighbours if you move to Smyrna, as we're relocating SW Atlanta in August
