Thanks for your time Doug. Dunno what to say about the typeface. I
didn't declare any font types, maybe I should. As far as the writing &
grammar.... I's ain't no colleged educated man, but trying...lol

Look at the typeface he

Just one of thousands of sites where your eyes fly through the words
without pause or fatigue. I'm no web designer, but I'm sure it can't be
that hard to change your font.

No it's not hard to change the fonts at all. Afaik, when font-type isn't
declared the browser uses it's default. I've been told that people tend
not to like the default font-type and font-size messed with.

On my end the text is somewhat larger than you would find on other sites.
I guess I'll throw a few pages into the sandbox and see what different
fonts due for the page. Thanks for your time Doug.

:-) On the page with the photos, use a div to contain the photo
and text instead of a span. Something along the lines:

div style="text-align: center;vertical-align:middle;"spantextbr /
img src="xxx.jpg" //span/div

The span tag is an inline element, whereas the div tag is a
block element. Typically block elements have x and y dimensions
while inline elements have a line-height and flow left-to-right, top-
to-bottom (unless you work in another language where flow goes
in an opposite direction).

By employing a vertical-align:middle you center the thumbnail
and associated caption in the middle of the div element.

Don't know if anyone else mentioned this, so here it comes...

It doesn't look like you're using a right column. And you've
provided a fixed size for the right most container (the content).
Things will work better if it's set to "auto". The way it works,
layouts typically involve two or three columns. Your site
appears to layout as two columns. And the content column
should be set to width:auto; while the left column retains a
fixed size. For three columns, the middle content might get
a width:auto while the right and left get fixed width's.

Hope this helps.
