There are a couple of graphics at the top and they load fine for me but i'm just wondering what browser you're using?? I'm thinking that could be the problem or it just needs a refresh?? Is anybody else having this problem??

I am checking it now... looks like a nice site. But I too am getting a lot of extra space.

I've tried adjusting the text size, but it still shows up a little funny.

??

I don't know what any of the "problems" would be. I'm not sure how you set this up.

THIS is what it looks like on my end (picture scaled down to save bytes).

I will tell you exactly what is causing that problem..............

If you check your page you will find that you have 2 copies of everything.

Just move one item around and you will see a duplicate below it.
and that applied to several items that I moved......

How did you manage to see that cos checking the source code from the server it only includes single items, no duplicates. Can only thing that the php is creating HTML copies of itself for the search engines. I'm going to optimise it today so hopefully that should sort it

I simply downloaded the whole page to my computer and then had a look!!

Its posible at one stage that you may have copied and pasted various items, and duplicated them without knowing...it happens all the time.

I can only think there's a problem viewing it in the opera browser as everyone else who has looked at it has no problems. Not really sure how i can correct this but will have an ask around.

Hey Mook -

I just wanted to let you know that I just went to the site and it looks like everything is now fixed! I haven't been to it in a couple days, so there must have been something you did that fixed everything. :)

I didn't mention it before, but I'm on IE7. I don't know about other browsers. ??

Anyway, looks great.
