Well I treid what you said and the logo dissapeared, so I tinkered a bit - which is dangerous with me you know! - and got this, #logo { margin:0 auto; width: 915px; height: 180px; background: url(images/custom/logo.png) no-repeat top center; float: none; display: block; } the logo is there and centered but not up at the top

Duplicating a site to target a US market...good or bad idea?
Hello Christian, I will say this much, having a .us not be the help you think. If I were you I would advise the client to obtain the .com version of their url if possible, then just have it pointed to their site as well.

REVIEW - www.pvcblue.com
I have been debating with myself on the footer for a while now, you should hear the arguments! LOL!! As for the grey heading backgrounds, that is easily remedied - that is what they made graphics programs for, and I have 6! LOL!! I will probably get rid of the footer shadow, but it is just me, I won't sit it on the bottom, maybe about 10-20 pixels above, I always feel like something is cut-off when I see a site hit the bottom of the browser! LOL!!!! What images looked stretched?? I always work big and scale down, and never use css or html to size a image! Thanks Gary

Code questions
On the forum there is not a indent. Isn't there something you can add to the css to tell it no bullet for the <li> I think that is what the space is for is a bullet, but I am not using one.

Code questions
I have a new menu on my forum, and like the menu on my website I just cannot figure out where in the code to fix these problems. There is a large space between the side of the nav box and where the links actually start, and when I look at it in the FF code inspector it shows me another space I have no clue where it comes from or why it is there! Would one of you care to take a guess??

REVIEW - www.pvcblue.com
No I cannot use a cartoon drawing - this is a site about PVC smurf collectibles, and using peyo line art can get you sued or your sight blocked. Also had you read the post above you would see the font on the logo is NON negotiable, it is a font made especially for me based on the word "SMURF" in the hanna barbera cartoon series and make my site stand out among the other collectible site.

New Photographer site
Nice layout, easy navigation, but there is just something missing, it feels like it is just floating out there in a big white void. You need something "graphical" to anchor it and keep the person looking, it is just too plain.

Its been a while....
I don't see anything but alot of black and 2 bars and your name - either link

My new site!
Nice layout, good graphics, not all your links work tho.... and your text needs a bit of a tweek - you wrote - "Here you can get all the latest news, gigs, mixes and whatever else the guys upto." change to - Here you can get all the latest news, gigs, mixs and whatever else the guy's up too."

Tattoo Website
Looks good in FF but doesn't render right in IE, the Menu drops partially behind the text box. Also the "devil" graphic is a bit much, it detracts from the text and makes reading it hard to do. Blur the image and make the text more defined or just use a red sunburst behind the text box. Myself I really do not like the "devil" image anyhow, it turns me off - I wouldn't check out this site if looking to get a tatoo.

Newbie to this page ranking stuff
I am not really sure how it all works with google and all, I have heard so many different theories and read things about it on google until I am blind. But last night I went on google and did a search for "smurfs websites" and mine is fifth down on the list! I just thought that was awesome!!

REVIEW - www.pvcblue.com
Thank Peter! I don't know about littered with smurfs, but with the upcoming movies Target and Walmart have both started selling a new line of Smurf toys and there are Targets and Walmarts EVERYWHERE!! LOL!! The original Scleich( a german company) smurf pvc figurines are only sold in a few specialty shops here, but you can order them online so that is ok, I am waiting for my order for the new 2009 ones to come in this week, they still make a new set every year!
