John - what resolution is your screen please?
I initially designed the site for 1024*768 pixels as this is what I use on my 15" monitor but the site then looks very poo(r) at 800*600 pixels...
To check, minimise all your programs so you can see you desktop then right click in the middle of the screen and choose properties. On the properties box that pops up, click on settings and down the botom it will tell you your screen area. It will be one of the following:
Thanks, Jon
edited to add:
Due to my paranoia, I have changed the entrance and made two sites so it can be viewed at both 800*600 pixels and 1024*768 pixels.
Please let me know if anyone still uses 800*600 as I very much doubt there are many peeps still using 14" monitors

The Website Looks FANTASTIC !!, Dead professional and I am speechless.
"Cumbriascoobs" take note...... I looked into setting up a website for my job and was quoted £25,000 to get one up and running !!

Time is not a cost to me as I do it for the pleasure (put in about 12 hours work thus far...)
The web address and the web space has cost me money but I think Lord Harding has plans to charge a membership fee, one of the benefits of which will be your own Cumbrian Scoobs email address such as Midlife@CumbrianScoobs.co.uk
I have deliberately gone to a company that will then let me forward this address to your existing email account so you can send and receive these emails
Will probably take this up further at Dales run meet, if not then I will have to drag myself up to teh Turf Inn

Its official I do indeed own the best car on Scooby net.
I’d like to thanks Gillian for buying it for me. My m8 Tom for the background to the shoot and to the can of WD40 for the shinny polished finish.
Sadly the car is in the workshop at present after a right sphincter moment off the breakfast table. Does anyone know where I can get some really small slicks.

Wednesday seems OK to me? What time?
Just looked at the pictures of the Dales Run....SMART, I obviously need to sell the Children for some spare time. I wondered if the Raelian cult will be interested>>>>
