    I think it looks nice, but it seems empty or something.

    Thanks for the feedback, guys. Point, when you say its empty, where are you referring to? Because when the site is all coded and set up, in the Affiliates box, there will be links (those 80 X 30 pics or whatever size they are...) and obviously there will be content inside the content box...

    And Mr. Cheeky, do you think it should be wider or taller or both? Personally, I think I'm content with the content box's size right now, but which way did you mean?

    Maybe a pic in the banner on the left hand side that might make it seem more full

    Hehe, I like how you think, Cheeky. Maybe I'll do that for my next template, but right now, I prefer the smoother look without the hot chicks or other renders in the banner for now. I may, however, just change the font and size of my text on the banner, but not at the moment.

    Yes, you absolutely need the content box bigger. Having a small box gets you no where.

    Alright, well when I get a chance next, I'll make the content boxes bigger and see what happens. The main reason against it, was just that I wanted it to match that box at the bottom with the copyright, and that box seemed to be the biggest it should be.

    looks good mate very nice and clean

    content box depends on what you will have, alot of content where you need more space, or not so much.

    so just size it acordingly and everythign will be gravy :)
