Why does the website load twice or blink when I first view it?

You are probably using the wrong URL. The correct URL is http://theminiaturespage.com/ - no "www" in the URL.

How long does a hyper-link stay "purple" after I select it? It seems that mine never go back to the original "blue". Consequently, even though I haven't read for a couple of days, all the links that I have read are still purple, even when new items appear and I haven't read them. Sometimes, it is confusing what I have read and what I haven't.

Good question. The length of time that a link stays "purple" depends on the settings in your browser software, regarding how long to keep URLs in your browser history. It is not something TMP has control over.
