I like it! Very nice! Although, I'm gonna need a couple more buttons. If you don't mind, I'd like to post a list of the buttons needed.

-Terms
-Classic Music
-Classic Videos

Jesse, can you make some drop down menu's? Actually...since the buttons are on the side of the page I guess the menu would go out to the side rather than drop down..

Honestly, what I would like is to be able to take your finished projects, Billy and Jesse, and customize them to suite my needs. Whether that's doable or not I don't know...

I think I may be able to work something out for a vertical menu instead of a horizontal menu, no promises though, bearing in mind I made the menu 2 years ago, lol.... gotta remember how I do this, lol...

I still think the table should be expanded past 640 pixels, most people nowadays have atleast a 1024x768 resolution. 800 might be good. Still hoyt though!  :cool2: :biggrin:

Looks pretty good Billy. No complaints from me! I do however, want to say that I'd like the site to be compatible with as many different browsers and screen resolutions as possible. I want to be sure that as few people as possible experience problems.

I've tested it in IE7 and Gecko 1.8.x and 1.9.x with no problems thus far. I've also increased the width of the table to 800 pixels wide so it will fill up more of the screen for those with high resolutions.

Nice job Billy!  :twothumbs:
 
BTW, I was woundering what the discription is. It appears to be in German (I think).  :wacko:

It's Latin. It is basically placeholder text until the actual text can go in. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorem_ipsum

If you wanna go for the CSS menu system, I can provide a few tutorials I can provide. Basically it is done through using UL and LI tags.

http://www.seoconsultants.com/css/menus/tutorial/
http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/testMenu.html
http://www.tanfa.co.uk/css/examples/menu/tutorial-v.asp

You just basically have to play around with it. Good luck! :biggrin: It took me a few weeks to get mine perfect. I discovered there's a key part missing in my menu system for IE after reading those... whoops

I can probably help you out once there's a near final stage of the design, if you're more than willing to accept the collaboration :)

Classic Music and Classic Videos, imo, should go before Miscellaneous.
