Not a bad design. It looks good. Great use of white space. Speaking of white, you might want to make the background color of the body white so you don't get a black bar on the right. One thought: what if you moved the computer up, move the logo to the bottom left and move the contact info to...

It's time I finally learn JavaScript. I've tried before, but I've never been able to grasp it. I've had enough exposure to be able to read and comprehend the gist of a given script, and I can even make simple edits to existing scripts. However, for some reason I haven't been able to pick up...

Just set the border for the div to 0, and any others you don't want to either 0 or none.

You can play around with just about all of the free/open source ones on http://www.opensourcecms.com

I usually use outline. I also usually don't think of it until there's already an issue I need to troubleshoot.

Here's a great article by A List Apart (one of my personal favorite design blogs) about floating elements: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/css-floats-101/ Had to share, because it gave me one of those "why didn't I know that?" kinda moments.

I think if we took yours, moved "black" to the top and put "crow" on the bottom, we'd have the best one yet.

That's close to what I was thinking. See if you can get her using CushyCMS, which defines editable regions by adding a class to the editable elements. Or, if the server-based editor allows the same, go that way.

Try CushyCMS

Thanks all for your input. The website is now live. You can see it here. Thanks again!!

I'd suggest just the opposite. If you're just starting out, hit up http://www.w3schools.com and learn how HTML and CSS work before you ever pick up a wysiwyg editor.

It's a nice layout. Definitely a step up from the old one. Not sure I'm diggin the background, though.

I started messing around with it in high school, around 1997. I learned a little HTML, but never went anywhere with it, and actually had no clue what CSS was. Fast forward to 2006, my wife was finally ready to start selling her artwork, and I had the bright idea to make the website myself. It...

add background-color:#fff; to the div for the post area.

If the flash wasn't enough, they have a hit counter. I think a kitten just cried. :p

The adjustment I made is attached. Works on my machine using Chrome 9.0.597.107

All they're doing is this: The center div is 530px high. They set the position:relative and top:50%. Then, just set the margin to negative half the height. In this case, -265px. So it looks like this: margin-top:-265px;

Thanks all for the perspective. I did end up changing the font. I liked it for the nav, but not so much for the h1 in the content. I'm still not sure I like the one I used for the h1. Does anyone have ideas for the favicon? I never have been good at making them.

My apologies. I just looked at the code again. I didn't mean "briefcase". I meant "content". Move the image into the "content" div.

Move the div that contains the image into the "briefcase" div. I'm on Chrome and that fixed it.
