Your html still has errors in there. Like your closing tags here:

Code:

<font color="Yellow">
<H1>bla</H1>
<H2>more bla</font></h2>

^^^The </h2> should precede .

Or you bold tags ... I only see closing bold tags .

Your site won't validate, even if you fix the current syntax, because you're using deprecated tags (like or ) and mention no doctype.

As for layout, I'd get rid of those table borders, but I'll let others discuss the layout issues as I'm just starting out on freesites myself.

Btw, isn't the 2257 info supposed to be on the pages with the content - ie the gals ?

Thanks Jab. I have added this to the start:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

I have also swapped the font and h2 tags around. Will sites got rejected because of bad html layout, such as tags being the wrong way round or not adding the doctype at the start?

Thanks for replies btw, really appreciate this help. I am learning each day and these forums are great for learning

Cheers
