This is the first time I've really tried to pay attention to design, styling, colours etc. so I'd appreciate any comments (positive or negative!). It's a site for advertising and selling your own work free of charge (site just takes a small cut of all sales).

Note for IE users: IE7 is needed to view the site properly - IE6 will work fine but is missing the rounded corners, transparency and so on.

Thanks in advance.

...Note for IE users: IE7 is needed to view the site properly - IE6 will work fine but is missing the rounded corners, transparency and so on...

if you add this:<!--[if lt IE 8]>
<script src="http://ie7-js.googlecode.com/svn/version/2.0(beta3)/IE8.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<![endif]-->
before the "</head>", you should be able to have the rounded-corners and transparencies work just fine on IE6 and less...

Basically, this is a 'mass-patch fix' for all the missing things that pre-IE7 has, bug-fixes, etc.

Sometimes, it makes a site or build much WORSE in which case, remove this and don't use it (or spend a few hours fixing what is really the problem) but for this most part, this will help. Mostly notable, this fixes the issue with alpha-transparencies not working in IE6, etc (which is the main reason I use it.)

P.S., -your site looks GREAT in SAFARI-on-XP! Nice job!

Thanks guys for the comments. I'll look into that WebJoel, didn't think transparency was possible in IE6, but then again I'm still learning!
