Wrapaninis is the latest incarnation of the sandwich shop on Como Ave. In the last year and a half this property has been occupied by an Italian restaurant, two pizza shops, and currently this Wrapaninis outfit. Expect to pay five bucks for anything of substance. The portions are modest at best, and the quality is decent, better than McDonald's but not really as delicious for your dollars as other restaurants nearby. I went in there for a personal pan pizza the other day, which I expected to be $3.50 since I didn't realize the pizza shop had traded hands once again. It only took ten minutes for them to make it, and the kid was nice enough, but it ended up being about six bucks for the total transaction. That's six rodeo cheeseburgers or spicy chicken sandwiches.The burger I got today was seven bucks. That's a three and a half pound ham. I don't know why I even bothered but I asked for onions and bacon to be added. They tacked on a dollar for each, added like two rings of onion and a strip and a half of bacon. There were three of them working and the two I spoke with seemed terse. The management of the outfits that have occupied this building have always been sour, so really what did I expect.

Beginning from the top, these are my thoughts on the visual presentation of your website:The overall layout is nice, the graphic is cool as well. The color scheme is pleasant enough but the section links on the left side are too pale and uncomfortable to read. The mouse-over color is also very dark and somewhat difficult to read.The floating Home image in the center of the screen is out of place. It could be used in a different navigation system, but standing alone like that is unnecessary.In the previously mentioned menu on the left, the link for home beneath the graphic link is redundant and also unnecessary. In this menu you should also consider using the graphic you have for the Home link on all of the links, or rather not at all. I personally think the extended underline is somewhat annoying.The Home link graphic in the left menu does not meet the graphic above it smoothly.I also think the home page is too long by several pages, consider breaking it up.

I'm using Mozilla Firefox v2 right now. I prefer Opera but after several years of patiently tolerating the multitude of incompatible sites I finally conceded and made the switch. I used the latest IE for a short while when I reformatted, and I can definitely say that Firefox and Opera are preferable. Hopefully Opera will one day rise again.

Bismuth crystals are peculiar, lab-grown stones that form intricate rhombic patterns. The patterns repeat on different axes and look like small cities. The metal almost seems to be "high-tech", it's really quite amazing and it's almost ambiguous as to what your looking at. All of the real information about this strange material is available on Wikipedia of course, but I must recommend a Google for 'Bismuth Crystals' to see some diverse photographs. Seeing these for the first time is like the revealing of an entirely different, mathematical aspect of nature, apt for reflection and contemplation.-Pinyl
