OK
1) Change
Code:

<td width="140" align="center" valign="top" bgcolor="#990000">
<!-- Begin Navigation Cell -->
<table width="120" cellpadding=3 border="0" align="center">
     <tr><td><a href="index.htm"><img src="images/btn_home.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>

     <tr><td><a href="aboutsqt.htm"><img src="images/btn_about.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td><a href="billing.htm"><img src="images/btn_billing.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td><a href="credentials.htm"><img src="images/btn_credentials.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td><a href="pledge.htm"><img src="images/btn_trial.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td><a href="contact.htm"><img src="images/btn_contact.gif" border="0"></a></td>
     </tr></table>
<br>   
<!-- End Navigation Cell -->

to
Code:

<td width="150" align="center" valign="top" bgcolor="#990000">
<!-- Begin Navigation Cell -->
<table width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center">
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="index.htm"><img src="images/btn_home.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="aboutsqt.htm"><img src="images/btn_about.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="billing.htm"><img src="images/btn_billing.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="credentials.htm"><img src="images/btn_credentials.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="pledge.htm"><img src="images/btn_trial.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
     <tr><td align="center"><a href="contact.htm"><img src="images/btn_contact.gif" border="0"></a></td></tr>
</table>
<br />   
<!-- End Navigation Cell -->

That was because I'd entered the width incorrectly in the td so they weren't centered, changed the width and aligned all the images

2) Change
Code:

<!-- Begin Main Info Cell -->
<table width="100%"

to
Code:

<!-- Begin Main Info Cell -->
<table width="500"

So with this one basically just change the 100% to 500, that was just habit as I normally use full width for mine Smile

Thanks so much Phil! These both worked like a charm! If I may trouble you for just a couple of other questions, I would appreciate it.

1.) How did you change the color for the text for the e-mail link? Couldn't find the code for that.
2.) How can you realign the bulleted list at the top of the home page so that it's centered a little better with respect to the text in italics above it??
3.) Do you think the red lines above and below the bulleted list need to be centered a little more (with respect to the text in itaclics above them)? It looks like they may be off just a tiny bit.
How do you do this, if it's necessary?

By the way, those comments you added in the code help an incredible amount- like you said, it makes everything so much easier to follow and understand. Thanks again- you are really a huge help! Very Happy

1) I didn't, I never touched anything in the body of the page to be honest, only the layout.

2 & 3) I don't honestly think these need adjusting, the bulleted list is centered fine, it is just the text in that first bullet point being longer than the others that makes it look strange. And the same with the lines, I think they're fine, certainly not off enough so that anyone looking at the site would spot it and comment. There's not really anything that can go wrong with the center tag, it sticks it in the center and nothing more Smile

No problem, it's one of the ways I learned to do layouts, makes it easier to go back and find if you have any problems Very Happy

Cool! I thought it looked ok too, but sometimes you just need someone else's reassurace.... hahahah..... anyway, I noticed that the text for the e-mail link looks like it's either in purple or blue, which helps it to stand out more, so I'd like to do that for the other pages, if possible.

Since I've been going back to kind of fine-tune everything in my website, I've noticed that perhaps my web designer was a little negligent or lax here and there. For example, if you change the text size in your browser when viewing some pages, and if a line begins with a new sentence, it will put a space before the first word of that sentence. But I'm afraid if I take out the "&nbsp;" command, that there will not be enough spaces between sentences in some text sizes. Please let me know if all this makes sense-- it's much easier to actually see it visually. At one point, I tried putting a "<br>" in the text, but this seems to create even more problems. Can you help? Thanks!

Scott

P.S. - The only page where the font color for the e-mail link looks different is the "Contact Info" page.

Phil,

Sorry for any confusion. I had posted my new message to a new topic "help with lining up text", because it dealt more with the text than the graphics, like before, but I guess I should have kept it in this topic. Please let me know if I should go ahead and post it here instead. As I've already posted it in the other topic, I don't want to duplicate my question. Thanks for your help.

Scott,

sorry not had time to look at this yet, been a bit busy and had meetings all day today where I was handed a lovely new laptop (woohoo). I'll take a look ASAP, but it may be tomorrow now. Very Happy
