Thanks for the help on
http://www.outlawamateurs.com/ I was too late on the root issues so I'll leave it there - write it off to a learning curve and move on.
My second attempt is a bit cleaner, not in the root, smaller images, beefer thumbnails, promotes my own site and in short, incorporates most of your suggestions. There are a few things nagging at me on it so I thought I’d ask for your input before submitting.

Have at it – and thanks in advance.
