1. Magic Wand. Anal Level: 1 (Low). Click the magic wand tool, set it to "Anti-Alias" (if you're using PS 6), and set the tolerance to about 10. Click the white, then delete. If you want to take some more off, undo that and set the tolerance to 15 or 20. The higher the tolerance, the more similar colors it will select when you click in the color area.

2. Lasso tool. Anal Level: 3 (Medium). Click the lasso tool, but click and hold on the lasso tool and select the Polygonal Lasso Tool. This let's you click to set a point, then click to set the next point, then so on and so forth until you go all the way around and complete the shape. You can be more precise with this Lasso than the normal one where it creates a selection after you let go.

3. Quick Mask. Anal Level: 5 (High). Make a selection within the logo. Then hit the "Q" key. You should see your selection disappear and the surrounding area (what you didn't select) will change to a transparent color while what you did select is clear. Grab the eraser tool and start erasing to reveal the logo. The good thing about this, compared to a regular eraser tool, is that if you make a mistake, you simply grab the brush tool and paint back the transparent color that you accidentally removed. Remember that what is clear is what will be selected. Once you're done, hit the "Q" key again, then do an inverse selection and delete the surround junk.

I took a look at the site and have only 3 tips.

1. Get rid of the "Swimming Pool" effect on the motorcycle image. It's just a file size hog. Most java stuff is.

2. Get rid of all (or most of) the animated gifs. Animated gifs are nice in moderation, but when you get a lot of them, they become overly distracting and detract from the site. Also, they add a ton of file size because each image is the equivalent of 10-20 images (one for each frame of animation). For instance, the Teal Mouse is 68kb!!! I've made entire sites for less. ;)

3. Get something like ImageReady (comes with Photoshop) to export the images. The Grey and Red bike images are 20kb each and it's because they haven't been resized and exported. You always want to export your images at the size you'll need them. So instead of having a big image like this and then setting the size in the html, you resize it in Photoshop/ImageReady and then export it and get a file size of about 6kb. If each images file size is cut by 1/3, your download time is cut by 1/3.

I know what you mean about the world changing. I don't worry near as much about fantasy sports as I once did.
