For Frontpage, this wasn't too bad. I finally got a chance today to go over it. I am not sure what you are saying though re:
I have since found out since setting up my web site, although looks fine on most PC monitors and fits the screen fine.
People using larger monitors, seem to see the page OK, but only in the upper left of the screen, and not fitting full screen size ?.
Is this a script error, or a resolution thingy on the actual PC ?. Still got my "L" plates on, so any feedback would be helpful. However, I went through your page and cleaned it up a bit. Fixed a few 'warnings' and such, switched to "strict" !doctype and got rid of a lot of superfluous 'non-breaking spaces' that were being used to horizontally space things like images. This can better be done with "positioning". That is to say, an image goes:
<img src="#" style="position:relative; left:50px;"> instead of 75 or 80 " "s. (I used to do it too, but this is a better, shorter way).
I noticed and it WORKS so there's no need to change it, that you have an image named "Wiz_Warroir.gif". -Should you ever discover and decide to change the name of the image to Wiz_WARRIOR.gif, be sure to ammend your code herein or else the images will stop working. But like I said, -it works albeit, mispelled(?) Heck, -I did a personal site about my vacation in the "Carribean" and well, it is spelled "Caribbean"... Did I change the web page? The text, yes... But the IMAGES? -Not yet... :rolleyes:
My thoughts on the matter:

But anyway... I spent about an hour just tweaking some things and have your site looking a bit better. Looks the same in IE as it does in Firefox, and no warnings/errors upon validation. It shows nicely upon 1024-wide and wider (centers). It may produce a scrollbar on 800-wide. To get around that I'd have to put that little text-box thingie (that I gave a left-double and single-pixel bottom white margin, btw) a new position, maybe below the golden navigation buttons(?) Or make that be not 169-px wide, but maybe 140-px wide and allow any text to 'wrap' to the next line (vis when hovering over the GLOBE image "Search the Internet", for instance, would line-wrap to another line..)
