good day!

i have a message board and i am duplicating the style to a wordpress blog for a bicycle community.

the board looks perfect: http://www.renofixed.com/talk
but the blog, not so much: http://www.renofixed.com/blog

how do i go abouts fixing the sidebar and content to be, in layman's terms, 'pushed up towards the top, and over to the left more?'

thanks everyone, i look forward to fixing this!

Sorry. I didn't really take a look. After half a MB, I still had only 3 of 154 image downloaded.

But I recommend that you start by fixing the HTML errors reported by the online validator. There are some serious structural problems there.

Not everyone is on broadband or has a high speed work connection. I'm on DSL, but it still took a while for your blog's images to load properly, especially the ones you linked from photobucket, et al.

Why is the page so long? Is there any reason you can't shorten the amount of entries per page, to say 5 or 10? Apart from the obvious benefit - shorter load times- it'd also make tracking your issue down a little easier.

Hehe, this was all yesterday when your site actually worked. Now, I get a "can't find site" error. Well, you get that.

Look in your stylesheet at http://www.renofixed.com/blog/wp-content/t...b20-1/style.css and find the following:

CODE
#content, #header h1 {
    text-align:left;
    margin:20px 0 20px 30px;
    font-size:9px;
    line-height:20px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }


Change the margin line to the following:

CODE
margin: 0 0 20px 0;


That should help.
