I would like to add a music stream to my home page. Where should I store the music files?

I recommend against no music, it seems to turn more people off than on. But if you are going to do it, have it defaulted to off :)

You can store stuff for free on http://pages.google.com

Now I can't seem to get it to center under the slideshow...:scratch

this is the code I'm using:

#mymusic {display: none;}
.homepage #mymusic {display: block; position: center;}

what am I doing wrong?

Update: I'm scraping this idea... after seeing it on there, I don't really like it anyhow...

Make sure you've licensed the music, or are using license-free music. I find it interesting that photographers can get all up in arms about unlicensed use of their images, but have no problem stealing music for their websites/slideshows. Not pointing a finger, just getting on my own personal soapbox! :D

Change position: center; to either margin: 0 auto: or text-align: center;

Without having a link to your site I'm just guessing.
