    Nice site. Simple & effective. Loaded really fast 4 the big pic u have as the background; how did u do that?
    The only thing I noticed is that ur contact us link is partially disappearing behind the brown border of the lorry pic.

    Thanks for looking, I will check out that link.

    The Back ground I just made 1 big image and inserted in page properties and kept my page well within the size of that image so I didn't get the tiling effect.

    Good looking site. The only things that i could see was Ditto with the contact us link in FF. Like the idea of the pallet background, but think it would be less distracting if a static background was used to save that strobe effect when scrolling down the page. But otherwise, nice job.
    Was having a play with the static background using the code below.

    <style type="text/css">
    body
    {
    background-image:url('http://www.ctpallets.co.uk/images/background6.jpg');
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-attachment:fixed
    }
    </style>

    Never measure the height of the mountain you're climbing. At the summit, look back and see how small it really is!

    Hi Darren. Just remove the image out of the page background area & then pop that code into the "Between Head Tag" area under page HTML. The bit of code will pick up on your image that has already been published to your server.

    Hey guys, I saw the page b4 the change, but can not remember 4 sure what the difference is. What is it that the code does? Maintain the background image stationary?

    It makes the background static and only the middle bit (or main page content) moves
