   Hey there,

   I finally got my site looking decent. Most of the work involved getting Gallery integrated, and stripping out a LOT of extraneous html, namely nested tables.

   Let me know what you think. It's pretty minimal, over all. I've looked at it in Firefox and Safari on os x, and IE 6 and Firefox on xp, but if anybody sees any weirdness, please let me know.

   I want to say thanks to everybody involved in the development of WP. It's a great piece of work. Gotta love all those coders who are much better than me, and willing to put so much time and energy into projects.

   Peace.

   Sure thing. Here's the css...

   #menu {
   position: absolute;
   top: 154px;
   padding: 0;
   background: #000;
   width: 698px;
   filter: alpha(opacity=70);
   opacity: 0.7;
   }

   #menu ul {
   border: 0;
   margin: 0;
   padding: 0;
   list-style-type: none;
   text-align: center;
   }

   #menu ul li {
   float: left;
   text-align: center;
   padding: 0;
   margin: 0;
   }

   #menu a {
   display: block;
   color: #fff;
   background: #000;
   padding: 5px 15px 5px 15px;
   text-decoration: none;
   font-size: 12px;
   font-weight: bold;
   }

   #menu a:hover {
   background: #666;
   padding: 5px 15px 5px 15px;
   text-decoration: none;
   }

   #menuHi a {
   background: #666;
   padding: 5px 15px 5px 15px;
   text-decoration: none;
   }

   It'll error in a validator, on account of the IE filter line. I like the transluscent look though. Also, the positioning will probably be different for your site. Other than that, it's just a plain old unordered list. Enjoy.

   Thanks for the feedback, folks.

   Looks decent to me, although Ma Simpson does look a little bit out of place,... lost almost... She might want to be replaced with,... say... somebody from a banknote?

   Somebody with a banknote? Hmm... I have to admit, I have no idea what this means.

   Thanks for the feedback everybody.

    Very nice, clean layout and design. I especially love how you got Gallery in there; I tried to do that (admittedly not knowing much about CSS or PHP) for about 3 days and finally switched to SPG. heh

    The title and the tag line ("like you really care") are a little hard to see because of the image.

    Thanks. Yeah, integrating Gallery took some work. The hard part was integrating it between the WP header and footer, as opposed to just modifying the Gallery theme to look like the WP design.

    Regarding my last post, I now see that the original post says "somebody FROM a banknote". I gotcha. Buy hey, I love the Simpsons, and the plugin was available.

    and I am surprised noone has noticed the good added feature, refresh your browser and a new banner displays. I did this one in cpanel with entropy banner, I suppose it is the same thing, but you used randon.php for this.

    here is mine for comparison but you do not have to refresh browser it is on a three second rotation

    Now I know a rotating banner can be irratating but I have the exact same with the refresh of browser but I have hotlink protection enabled so it will not work now.

    Good job on the template as it does not resemble Kubrick!
