Why I decided to start this site?
Well, there is a whole "about me" section at
www.multimadrid.com/mm_info/about.htm that most people never find in case you are interested. There is also the "insider scoop" pages at
www.multimadrid.com/mm_info/insider_scoop.htm with loads of pics of me and the things I use to design multimadrid
Basically, multimadrid was born from a love :l: for Madrid (& Spain in general), a passion for digital photography and an addiction to web design.
Saludos,
jer...
