Ok, I was putting up the new design of my site, and when I went to check it out the background didn't show up. It only showed up when I would refresh the screen (minimizing IE and then maximizing it). Check out these libks to see if it works for you:

kidjustino,

Are you referring to the red striped background? If so I saw it in every version. I am also seeing the green tabled background it that's what you are referring to.

I have netscape 4.07

Hmm.. when I went to the first one, only half of the yellowish background came up (almost halfway through the under construction text), then I reloaded it and it didn't show up at all in the under construction section except for a couple small dots, but if I changed windows and went back to that one it would show completely.

Strange.

Thanks. Brooke, how does the overall site look in Netscape? Craig, that whats happening to me. Do you see anything wrong with the HTML code, or why it would do that?

Thanks. I figured out what was wrong, and I'm fixing it now. Finally, a version of my site that works in BOTH browsers.

UPDATE: Well I thought I knew what was wrong with it, but it seems it didn't fix it. Now it just keeps loading, and loading. Please help!

I had a look with IE4+5, it took ages to load and the Contact page had some of the red background showing in the table. This cleared when page reloaded. Wierd!
Maybe it's your server?
Design looks great.

Works for me, but still takes ages to come up (on a T1) - Graphics only that is.

I asked my server people and they said it had to be my HTML. OH well, the second design in a row that something has gone wrong. I'm now working on the same thing, only simplifying the tables, and then I'm going to test it on a few servers.

UPDATE: Well, I tried making the background a solid color, but it still didn't work. Is this a bug in HTML or what?

I think you have a problem with your images - ie. your mainbg2.jpg. Try changing all your jpg's to gif.
Instead, why not specify table bgcolors with style sheets to cut down on images?

Netscape is a pain as far as tables go but IE is not. At any rate your code would have to be very dirty to slow loading to this level.
