Wrong section I'm afraid!

But just a few things:
1- immediately "warning warning"... a red site doesn't usually look good, and this isn't an exception I'm afraid
2- The images lower down the page don't look right. Too square, different sizes, not positioned right
3- The yellow text is both too small and hard to read
4- The text boxes don't sit right and look odd
5- Not a fan of the template, but that's a personaly thing I guess
6- Links page looks awful, proof page doesn't work, gifts tab links straight to kudos (took me by surprise) and there's no "home" tab.

Really sorry to be harsh mate, but honestly I am helping

Kinda agree with MJ10, look for a different template. The red shouts aggressive to me and the 'Steps'i think turn the wording around so it is horizontal or even better scrap the image and use a normal text title. If you feel a text title blends in with the text below to much then try altering the css style so it stands out more.

P.S. How do you manage to get average 75 views a day on it? Is it from this thread or is that what you normally get?

cheers guys. like i said i am just starting out and tried to do it with html (learning as i go along) have no idea of css ??
if someone fancies doing one for me I would be willing to maybe complete an offer in return.
as for hits i normally get betwen 100 and 120 from other sites mainly.

You can make a div class to edit your title tags and edit your text and more much more to suit your needs. Below is just an example of what you can use, you can either put the code below into a seperate css file and link it to the document or you can simply add it into your <head> (may require extra coding).

.font_title{
font-size: 18px;
color: #fff;
font-family: Myriad Pro;
text-align: center;
}

After you have done that then simply link it to where you want it, e.g.

<div class=font_title> The title you want here </div>

I put in english.... Read the explanation

mikejoy1969 · 19-01-11, 05:55 PM

I know mate was being funny. I am guessing that little bit is css, but i have no idea what it would do or where to put it or how to change it, so think I will give it a miss. Think I will just do a goog search for someone willing to design one for me.
