Index: Sidescroll at 600x800, broken recip image, two <head> tags
Main: sidescroll at 600x800, I wouldn't use more the 3 lines of linked text
Galleries: See above

I don't know if you've looked at your gallery pages at higher screen res, but everything spreads out and it doesn't look very good. Check the screencap to see what I see.

I would recommend starting each page with a 750 table and putting everything inside that to keep things nice and tight.

Oh yeah, some of your thumbs are squished. Best way to avoid that is to crop manually. The more you automate things, the bigger the chance that something gets screwed up without you noticing.

Just noticed this, but those aren't actually thumbs. They're fullsize images loading in smaller dimensions.

samandian, you need to get yourself some sort of image editing software. There are a number of freebies out there, but I wouldn't know which to use because I'm such a photoshop freak.

A thumbnail should be a smaller version of the image, reduced in pixel dimensions and size. I like to keep my thumbs between 4-6k.

Problem is, he couldn't put the recip table together.

This sums up what I'm thinking perfectly.

Not everyone has to be an excellent coder to build a free-site, but if you are going to put your name out there on something you have created, you should at the very least know the basics of what you are building. In this case, know how to build a table, Hell how to even put in <head> tags.

Sorry, I'm just in a fould mood. Must be all those damn sinners...
