Default I have a suggestion for this site.

What would you all think about having some kind of background music? Fishing songs , running water, animal sounds, or just something? It does get a bit boring just looking when we could be listening too.
What do you think?

I HATE websites with annoying background music. Everyone likes different music, so its a bad idea IMO.

iPod/MP3 player - I listen to what I want when I want - or nothing at all.

Now Playing: Def Leppard, Dokken, Supertramp, SRV, Lincoln Brewster and a little Montgomery Gentry!

Mostly, I listen to music to drown out the noise of my cubie neighbors.

No music. I hate web sites with music in the background. Plus for anyone on dial up or slow dsl it is just one more thing that will slow down their experience on the site.

Too many folks out there at work who aren't supposed to be on ifish at work would get into trouble. Also, if I want a website to make noise I'll lick my finger and squeak it across my monitor screen.

If I'm at home viewing, I have iTunes going. While at work, it's the iPod or the humming of printers and a copy machine

Ted, I can't help it if I was born with a Quint-Core audio processor stuck in my head. OMG, I really need a TUNA! fix.....

Besides, all of them playing at once is much better than the ambient noise of my cubie neighbors....just ask Boatdog - he's heard it over the phone.

I wouldn't call having a computer at work "lucky"...more like a ball and chain.

Download Itunes (free software by Apple). One nice freebee with Itunes is the radio programming. Thousands of free channels. Then you just open up Itunes, choose a radio station and start it playing, minimize the Itunes window - fire up Ifish and enjoy!

Those of you who have never heard Jennie play are missing a bet. I would LOVE to have selections of her music playing in the background.
