Contrary to popular opinion, I am not a glory hound and I did not create a website just to gain popular praise. However, neither am I so humble and modest as to ignore praise when it is given. Here are some of the praises I have received, in no particular order.

In May of 2004, some of my Atari Jaguar games page were been featured in the Gamestalks.com games directory. Fight for Life and Towers II were named specifically.

I was honored when now defunct Links2go.com named my Atari section a "Key Atari Resource" in their website directory. They thought that between my website and a few others, a person could find all the Atari information they needed instead of having to sort through the entire internet. Great concept, but I don't think it ever caught on.

Brianna's Banana Site was kind enough to give me a link on their banana games page, so I'm returning the favor here. What does my site have to do with banana games? Well, one of the cheats for Atari Jaguar Alien Vs Predator involves typing out phrases on the Jaguar controller pad, and one of those phrases is "BANANA STOP." No, I don't know why. Maybe somebody in the programming crew really liked bananas. Anyway, here's the link: http://www.bananasite.com

How many websites can say that the president of an international corporation wrote in to say "good work" and that you're helping the industry? That's exactly what happened after I received my International Association of Healthcare Safety and Security (or was that Security and Safety?) certification and mentioned the fact in the Healthcare Security section of my website.

Unfortunately, for every bit of praise, there is a critic:

Please remove immediately the IAHSS logo from your web page. Our logo is copyright protected and it is being used inappropriately.

(I immediately forwarded a copy of Russ' email to Nancy. It's been three years now and I have yet to receive a reply from her.)

"Nightstick" is an Austrailian security officer who has to deal with a whole different set of problems than us silly Americans, but he was impressed enough with my Healthcare Security pages to give me this award. I hope he will forgive me for clipping and resizing it, but the JPG he sent wouldn't even display on my Atari browser.

If you wish to link to Cheek.Org, feel free to do so. You don't even have to tell me about it, but I'd appreciate it if you would. If it suits your style and your site, you can use one of the links below:

(Lots of code, but it still loads faster because it doesn't call on an external graphics file.)
