Hi everyone Georg brought up a great point.
The site design is completely illegible with images turned off. I have a black background color set on the body and black text. I need to place a white background on the content section to provide a readable area when the images are disabled. I think this is a very valid point for site design and I thank you for pointing it out. Thank you again for the comments, it will make my de-bugging this weekend much more productive.

(I can even make it line up perfectly in Opera 8's 'fit to window width' with this adjustment.} Major flaw: - Redefine font-size on body for IE/win. Using Ems triggers the 'extreme font-steps bug' in IE. Makes the columns overlap on 'largest' and text unreadable on 'smallest'. Use '%' instead. - Minor flaw on a photographer's site maybe, but trying to read the page with 'images off' is 'no good'. - Search could do with something like: #search {min-height: 4em; _height: 4em;} Other minor points: - A few pixels of the background-image showing at the very bottom. - Footer weak for font-resizing since the background don't size with it. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
