I think that it probably would have been in your best interest to NOT do the positioning of the images with CSS. The would be more browser friendly in tables. In the Address and Links div, use a grey and blue image for the background with the repeat set to Y (I think) This way it will repeat horizontally and not vertically. You can also you can but the background color as the same as the image. Know what I mean? I will download the current one and have a look at it. Later, C:\ ~Binary is best~
