If the original authors bring back these pages, I will gladly remove the content here and instead point to the official site.

May 10th, 2006
The Original Tipping page has been redesigned from the ground up. The new site incorporates some modern design cues as well as heavy use of CSS and no tables (so far :-)
Some of the pages, namely the bulk of the TIPs pages, have not yet been converted. The Discussion Forums have also not been properly re branded. Please pardon the appearance while we complete the update.
