My site did not get listed ...

neticule, I am using 100% standard settings, nothing special. It isn't a question of if it scrolls, but does a scroll bar appear on the bottom of the page.

Unless you are putting in leftmargin and rightmargin body tags and setting them to 0 (to reclaim the default 5 - 10 pixels on each side) then the scroll bar will appear as early as 730's... it is a royal pain in the ass, I know, but that is the reality of the situation.

The 4 links on the bottom are the reason most of us wouldn't list it, we wouldn't get as far as the galleries. But once I got to the galleries, I knew this was going to be an issue. 740-750, it MIGHT get by... but at 760, I know scroll bars are appearing all over the place.

get a life guys!!!!

U can clearly see all pages on 800 x 600 settings. So who cares if u see bars in IE or not and scroll 2 or 3 pixels from the left to the right and back? If I have to worry about stuff like that I will give up building sites. Either the site is okay or not .... but if you judge about a few pixels of width .... that is absolutely rediculous !!!

I can understand about the bottom links ... I will remove them .... even if that means less traffic and a lower page rank .... it is no harm to me ....

keep it easy .-)

What are you going to do instead?

i make sites starting off with a single table thats align center at 710 pixels and then i drop my 100% width tables inside of it. you can setup your main table to be max of 95% but for those people on high resolutions your website will be too spaced out looking. and for people on 640by480 its going to look too big but who uses that low res anyway?

Well, I don't do reviews anymore because Mishi fired me (I was too much of a meanie

) ... but I wouldn't have listed you on our own linklist because your site is just three galleries and no marketing whatsoever. Potential scrolling issues and everything else aside, I won't approve sites that appear to be built by individuals that just discovered FrontPage and think it's still 1996 when you could toss up anything and make money off it.

Plus your logo itself, on main.htm, is a blind link to your sponsor - major no-no.

Perhaps rather than biting the hand that ever so nicely fed you when you asked for free advice, your time might be better served by listening to the advice and fixing your own fuck ups?

Or... were you just here to bitch and whine because you already know everything?
