I recommend that you start by fixing the markup errors reported by our online validator. See the links at the top and bottom of this page.

With CSS margin or padding.

All elements must be closed in XHTML, while some closing tags are optional in HTML. That is, using only <p> is OK in HTML (while still a bad habit IMO). In XHTML you must write the closing tag out, <p>...</p>.

With CSS, or if you must with the align attribute for P.

Oops! I actually see that in IE6.

The gaps to the left is because you haven't removed the left margin on UL. All browsers do this differently. It's best to remove all margin and padding to start with and then add back what you want. That way you don't have to remember what browser does what.

ul, li { margin: 0; padding: 0 }

In IE6 there's also gaps between each list item (or so it looks). I don't recall the fix. I'll search for it.

I'm not exactly sure what's going on with the vertical gaps in IE 6. I think it's something else than I thought. But adding either a bottom margin or padding to li works.

You could change the border-top you already have to border-bottom, or if you don't like the look of that, add a 1px bottom padding.

It's pretty bad, so you probably want to do something about it.

Another way to improve it would be to correct all the spelling mistakes:

Quote's -> Quotes
Trophy's -> Trophies
O.E.B (?Old English Bulldog?) -> O.E.B.
O.E.B.'s -> O.E.B.s or OEBs is neater
Recieved -> Received
