I use Google as my home page, since it loads very fast and I use it a lot.  I doubt that Google minds a bit - they would probably be 
very pleased!

As to your site, you are taxing their server a small bit when it downloads to you the contents of their main page.  They may prefer 
that you do not do that, or they may be very pleased.  Some sites keep a count of hits and use it to attract sponsors and 
advertising.

Why don't you just email them and ask them if they mind?  Of course, there is not much that they can do about it if you don't tell 
them what you are doing, and the time is pretty minimal.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Making Home Page Black


Hi There,

I would like to have my home page  on my browser (firefox) totally black with
no writing or pics on it.  I get  tired of the one I have and want it black
cause it's easier on the eyes, and it  loads faster. I found a link good enough
to use, but am afraid the owners  of it may not like me making it my home
page. Any help along  these lines would be appreciated.

I use Win XP home - Dell  Dimension 8400 - 2 GB
