Welcome to the biggest web design headache: IE. Start by setting the margin and padding of everything to zero. There are a plethora of ways to do this, and people can debate for hours on which to use, but the easiest way is: * {margin:0; padding:0;} PNG alpha transparency doesn't work in IE 7...

I've never used core FTP, but with Filezilla you just navigate to the folder and drag/drop.

I would start by not emailing them. Visit them instead. Find out if they have an existing site, and what you can offer that they don't have. Bring a pad of grid paper and begin by sketching concepts while you are there talking with them.

I have been hesitant to watch the latest Saw movie The first 2 or 3 were good, but the rest were crap

As a general rule, you should avoid using images for text as much as possible. Ditto on the logo. Very nice.

The site looks really good. What is the font in your header? The only thing I noticed, was that the log-in link doesn't work.

Try adding a clear:right; to that image. The text should move up then. As far as the layout, it's a nice, clean design, but it feels a little too open. Consider shrinking the left column a little bit, and tightening up the spacing. White space is good, but too much just makes things look...

It might be better to go ahead and change the doctype to strict. If you validate to transitional and then change it, you may find a lot more errors just when you thought you were done with everything. No sense in wasting your time validating against rules you won't ultimately be using.

I just got orders (I'm active duty USAF) to Tinker AFB, OK and I'm currently stationed at Elmendorf AFB, AK. That said, we plan to drive the ALCAN highway down. Looking forward to the trip.

Nice page. The graphics are nice, and the layout is clean, but I have to agree that the page curls are a bit overdone.

Notepad++ has the same function.

I never knew you couldn't use top, left, etc. for static position. That explains so many of the issues I've had with positioning!

What I usually do is slice around the images on the page. First, I hide all background layers, then slice around the images. That gives the images a transparent background (saved in .png). That way, if I want to adjust background colors, I don't have to change the images themselves. Then, I...

You have an extra </div> after the second <img> tag in the body section. I downloaded everything, and removed that, and it worked like a charm.

The crow looks much better. What does it look like with the font you used in the first one?

That's right. I'd love to help you. Just need to see the code and, if possible a screenshot of the offending page.

Make sure you're uploading to the right folder. Many servers have a folder called public_html where the files go.

For the area you want to expand, set a minimum height. Like this: min-height: 450px;

With Shutterstock, you either buy credits, or pay a recurring fee, and you can use the images for just about anything. With CC or WikiCommons, the license is on the page for the image. I use CC and Wiki mostly, or I take my own photos.

While I can't agree that the Adobe suite on a high-end Mac is entirely necessary, you really should expand your budget some. Or, at the very least buy someone's used rig off Craigslist. As far as Gimp, if you want free alternatives, give Paint.net a look. It feels more... Photoshop-y.
