Question! If I can't get it aligned in both Firefox and IE for some reason (uhh), would you prefer that it be perfectly aligned in IE or Firefox?

Kathleen, for LXS voting purposes, I'd recommend that you code so that it's aligned in firefox, not IE, because IE renders coding differently than the majority of browsers (firefox, opera, safari, ...).

Just to make it clear, my design is only aligned in Mozilla Firefox. I couldn't fix the background image to match up with the overlay, so I'm pretty sure it is not aligned in Internet Explorer. Thanks.

^Sorry, I cannot help how the font is, it is Small Fonts and to me and others, it looks fine. We are not here to critisize and change every little detail. The design is what it is, and if you have a problem with it, do not click on the entry to view it. That is all I am suggesting. Thanks. mellow.gif

anime, maybe you can assigned more than one font for a categories. For example, if someone computer don't have "fontA" then it will show up as "fontB."

font-family:fontA, fontB

like that.^

Wtf, xxklipse.

Yours is dam wonderful. ZOMFG.

And it's green too! ;O

As expected, you did a well job.
My only suggestion is to allow "friends" to cut through the image. Unfortunately, the letters were cut.




Wow, it looks like your layout can easily turn into a myspace.

My photoshop died out. fallen.gif cry.gif Right now, i'm using imageready. _dry.gif
Thank you ;]

I quit making xanga layouts because it was so boring. I don't have anyone to impress. Lol.
I have my Vincent Valentine images and it hadn't been coded.

I'm a myspace designer now.
