    Why I click on About Me > Profile I go to a page:

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> The page cannot be found
    HTTP 404 - File not found
    The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

    powered by
    the "cost-free, banner-free" hosting network <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Seems to be some truth on that page.

    Its a real shame I can't even see this fantastic background (or the "interface") - my browser shows a missing image icon.

    And no wonder, with the reference to it in the source like this!
    <img src="file:///C|/My Documents/k2.png" width="800" height="600" border="0">

    No surprises why this doesn't work!!

    And as has been said many times, whats the point in forcing the size of the web page to 800x600 etc? The web is not meant to be a platform-specific application, but is a resolution indepentant cross-platform cross-browser medium, and must be developed for as such.

    How does this page look to YOU when viewed in a browser at 800x600 screen resolution?

    After looking at Ross's source code, I realised that he may not see what we see when we visit his site. He is referencing files that exist on his computer.

    Ross, try visiting you site on another computer and you will see what we (don't) see.

    But he wasn't always! When the background was so bizarrely positioned in the table that he's since removed, it had a correct relative URL...

    Don't forget, BTW, ('not to brag') that Ross 'knows a lot more about computers than most people', so perhaps there's method in his madness! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

    But this thread (not alone in being posted to the wrong place) should clearly be in one of the Site Design/Feedback forums, so I'm not going to reply to it again.
