this is the latest version of my website: www.forgecreative.net (http://www.forgecreative.net)
done in html in order to make it accesible to everyone, but Im having some problems with the spacing in netscape and firefox, everything looks fine in explorer but when you open the pages in these two programs the graphics "jump" up and dont align with the background, any suggestions?
I would appreciate any crits as well, let me know what you think!
cheers

tried absolute positioning?
also, slap some "alt" tags in there if accessibility is your goal. :)
Edited: oh, sweet site! great job.

Perhaps use an image spacer to push it down? Set body margin to 0 also. Or use a div and position it absolute :)

I did go back and make a lot of the files smaller in size, quite a bit actually, is there a way I can test my site using different speed settings? out of dreamweaver or explorer?
thanks for the help so far, its good to know these things, still having problems with the alignmnet though,
ecsyle: I am using an image spacer, but im not sure how to make the image absolute in dreamweaver

Well you might consider using text instead of images for some of the things you have there. That would speed things up some. For instance, the text thats on the image could just be a small background image, tiled, and write over it with a webfont. But your entire site is basically images which really demands a lot of bandwidth to DL
