I don't like your layout one way or the other as it is, nor do I like your clog-tastic bio

But I'd probably not change the layout at least.

Quick question. The higher rank you are in the Layout size comparison, the worse?

Cause uhhhh....I cant cut mine down anymore...Unless i'm missing something.

I remember using the Layout Maker once. There was a lot of useless codes that I had to copy and paste, and it took forever to load for me.

I should try to remember HTML sometime . That way I can have some individuality in my posts, but I'm good without one.

Drag's Post #486
My layout is super simple, and with one small change (a bg image), I could turn my layout into xk's.

The only thing is that I use tables still, and I'm not sure what the advantages of table vs. div are.

Uh, Acmlm's post crashes my IE7... Possible reason is this old crappy laptop.

How about making a layout request thread, once again?

Base layout code choices?

It's IE. What did you expect it to do, render it?

Also, nothing wrong with tables, but it can be fun to try to avoid them. Mine doesn't have any. And then you can brag about how your layout is supposedly better for people with vision problems than if you had used a table, even though those people probably turn layouts off anyway.

The only thing tables do is force a rigid content-goes-here-in-this-order format. Divs allow you to bypass that and move content wherever-the-fuck-you-feel-like.

You also have to remember that this board is just one big table many small tables. Using div tags just tends to break things; I see quotes going off the edge of the page or other nonsense crap (who remembers posts overlapping other posts? yeah) going on.

That, and divs require a lot more maintainence tha tables to look right; "width 100%, margin 20" doesn't look the same across all browsers, for example, but a table cell with 100 width and two other cells with a 20px image on either side will work just fine everywhere.

Yep, however, I started with divs, so I know how to use them, control them, make them try to not explode in Interned Explorer... (Stupid lack of min-height and min-width *grumble*) Tables just feel weird to me.

Meh.

Tables are for Tabular Data pretty much sums up my feeling on tables.

Great, and my opinion completely differs.

Nobody cares. Tables tend to take up less space, allow better control over layout, and generally tend to work better. But to each his own; you design with whatever, and I'll use what works in a certain situation.
