Thanks I'll fix that.

Anyone want to answer the original question? How does the new look of the sitelook? Do you think I should keep it as is or change it back?

Looks fine. But I have one suggestion... change the color of the visited link. The pink is difficult to read on a blue background.

I'm trying to figure out how to do that in Dreamweaver. I can change the color of all the links on the page, but I can't find a way to change the color of individual links...

Have you played around with the "vlink" attribute?

If I mess around with the vlink attribute thats in the <body> tag it changes every link on the entire page. I only want to change the links in the horizontal nav bar at the top of the page, and in the one at the bootom of the page.

Gary, I don't have much experience with Dreamweaver, but I'm looking through the HTML code, and it seems very sloppy. I'm rewriting it as we speak, and I'll see if I can fix that issue. :D

Oh I have no doubt that its very sloppy. I did most of it by hand, and my inexperience usually leads me to just throw things on the page without regards to organization or anything else.

I like it too.It took a little getting used to, but now that I'm starting to get familiar with it I really like it. Much better than Frontpage, which is what I used to use.

Thanks. Or we can always opt for the design that I suggested to Gary a few weeks ago... http://billy.mozfaq.org/temp/Gary/twc_today.htm
