Do you have a link to the page? Are the pictures placed in the site using anything other than plain vanilla image links? <img src="url"> style? | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

Yes, it's all well and good to say IE is bad, but it's also THE most widely used browser by a good margin. It's unfortunately not an option to ignore it. | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

Yeah I agree on Fire Fox being much better. The code really isn't an image problem, but a background picture problem. The code I was using is for a table with a background image, but the image doesn't show up. It's weird because I have another table with a different image background that does show up in IE. The page isn't up yet, I'm just previewing it in both browser so I can't really link it to you. Here's the code if it helps: Code: <body> <div align="center"></div> <div align="center"> <table width="620" height="1125" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#A81302"> <tr bordercolor="#000000" background="Picture Files/header.jpg"> By the way Dan, I own that shirt.

I don't think you can technically put a background in a table row. Try putting it in a <td> instead. Also, I see that you're using an image url which includes both spaces, and uppercase characters. It's general practice to avoid mixing case, though it doesn't actually matter. Using spaces is a bad idea though. It can cause no end of little problems here and there. | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

Yes, for all intents and purposes you have to stay within the default font set. You can use a custom font, and specify a secondary font using CSS, but it's better to stick with one that everyone has. There are a few ways of embedding fonts in the site, but they're usually somewhat tricky. I've never bothered. | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled."

... and obviously if it's just for a title or something, you could always rasterize the font into a jpg or gif that everyone can read. Joren www.jorenclark.com"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few. " ~Shunryu Suzuki

Watch out though - if you save it as a picture it isn't crawlable through Google - and thus your site won't show up in it's search as much. Only text is searchable. Make sure you put the full text in the ALT tag if you go ahead with that route. -Chris Studentfilms.com
