 * Your markup in about.php is not too hot.
 * `<p></p><b>THE VITALS</b><p></p>
    <b>Name:</b> Tyler<br></br> <b>Age:</b> 20<
   br></br> <b>Location:</b> Boston<br></br> <b>Born</b> in Seoul, South Korea<br
   ></br>  <b>Raised</b> in the US<p></p> <b>Countries I've Visited</b> <p></p>
 * Try putting your content inside the `<p>here</p>` paragraph tags and then style
   the tags to get some margin.

 * I’m not sure how much you know about css but you could
 * `<strong>THE VITALS</strong>`
 *  <strong>Name</strong>: Tyler
 * etc.
 * and then in your style.css
 * change line 104 to a number you are confortable with.
 * or
 * add
 * `p { margin-left: 10px; }
    img { margin-left: 10px; }
 * to the bottom of the same section of your style.css if you only want left magins.
 * if you only change line 104 then you’ll have to put the images in the `<p>` tags
   or style them separately as in
 * `img { margin-left: 10px; }`

 * The above post should have `<p>` tags around the first two line with the `<strong
   >` tags.
    This _backtick_ thing got all screwy and now I get and XML error while
   using FF.
 * And for some reason, while in IE I do not get an edit link.
 * Just play with css to get the margins…
