Pretty snazzy, but I'd suggest using relative links--instead of http://www.freewebs.com/skeddles/about.htm, just link to about.htm. That way, if you ever decide to change hosts, you don't have to rewrite every url on the page. Note that you can't do that with images in this case because they're externally hosted.

it looks ok on the outside, but your code leaves much to be desired.

the banner is 0ver 30kb, bad bad bad for something of that size.

also, javascript is a bad choice for hovers.  you should use css for that.  it is crossbrowser and will work if the user has javascript turned off.

you head is very very incomplete as well...

check this out, feel free to just steal the whole source. 

a few notes:
blockquotes are ONLY for emphasizing something, like a quote or series of text...

double line breaks (i.e, <br /><br />) should just be new paragraohs (<p>...</p>)

An improvement on your previous site, that's for sure.
Nice layout, though I think the text style should be different to suit the site more.

so it looks to me like you were just spamming your site?  people give you suggestions and help, and you ignore it all?  very classy.

Hey guys!

Really sorry it's taken me so long. Aside from me not having a clue what I was doing, I also got pre-occupied by programming with JustBasic.

Well, I finally finished it, and uploaded it. Its also updated a little.

Thank you guys very much for checking it out! Especially Ensellitis, that made my website a lot neater. I also checked out your website, and it looks awesome(I laughed out load at the hate mail). One question though: I tried to add a link to friends site, but the picture doesn't show up... What do I need to do? -its on the links page-


Thanks again guys!
*if anyone wants to trade banners, just tell me*


EDIT: oh ya, another question:
How can I change text color/font/link?
would it be like this?

links in content would be

#content a:link
{
color:#bbdaa9;
font-weight:bold;
text-decoration:none;
}
#content a:active
{
color:#c77b3b;
font-weight:bold;
text-decoration:none;
}
#content a:hover, #content a:visited
{
color:#cc8a52
font-weight:bold;
text-decoration:underline;
}



the entire links page is empty, all the pages are...
but a linked image is just <a href="http://..."><img src="http://..." alt="description of image" /></a>

I just couldnt figure out why my image code was working, so I asked my friend, and he pointed out I had SCR not SRC. Go figure.
