I like it Alex, nice and simple. I'm not sure what scroll it is you're trying eliminate?

I wonder if a thin border around it might finish it off a bit better to separate it all from the stripes? Maybe just in a gray, nothing too dark or obvious.

Yeah great idea to seperate the header and content.

and the scroll was on this page:

Code: Select all
#content {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(images/contentbg.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
min-height: 800px;
width: 800px;
overflow: auto;
}
Take out the overflow:auto; from there... That will fix your scroll!

Looks good Alex! I like the header font you chose!

I think I'd try to punch up the headings "Navigation" and "Affiliates"

Maybe change the color and make them bold???? Just a thought.

GEE Adrock, the flower and the female face didn't clue you in that I'm female???

Gosh, I think you need to step away from your computer a little!

Yeah Alex, I was thinking either a graphic, since the word Navigation isn't important for SEO nor is Affiliate. Maybe something snazzy? Or if not, change the color and make it bold? I don't know.. something fun!
