Fizzy Pop, Just another bubble to pop Options

[TickleMePinkie]

Some feed back on this layout - PLEASE?
I am just getting started with working wiht Paint Shop Pro (to cheap for Adobe) -
so this may seem simple or cheesy to you guys - but sadly enough it took me forever to figure out.

Any feedback will help alot so that I have an idea of what to do or not to do.....

Coding this one is killing me as well. ( I have the image mapping part done okay as well as the About me area... it's just the blog area that has me stumped....)

Maybe someone can tell me why it is that no matter how big I make the space for the blog in my code the text only fill out to an area about an inch wide.

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Also any advise on how to get the picture quality better?
When I am working with it in the program it looks great, I have tried saving it and loading it as both a Jpeg and PNG file.... but once I load them on the web the pictures look grainy and pixelated.....
