Intense fighting in an 8x8 game

I've been playing a lot of games on small boards on KGS to try and hone my skills at close quarter fighting. This is a game I played just now and it really pushed my reading to the limit. I'm black. I've made a few comments, mostly regarding the mistakes on moves 29 and 37 which I will learn from. But I'd be grateful for your opinions on the game. Where can I still improve, and what could white have done to mess up my plans? Thanks.



(edit)- I don't know why it's showing a full 19x19 board. Can someone tell me how to fix it?

(edit 2)- funny. I can change it to 9x9 but 8x8 doesn't work.

seems like the problem is eidogo, I can download and view it fine with the KGS client.

Edit:

I looked over the game, but it's hard to give any advice when you destroyed white so easily. From move 10 forward you won the game, the only question was whether white could live with any stones anywhere (answer: no).
