Ok have done a lot more to My VA skin and site. I think it has a much cleaner look now. also I did the last update and that helped alot

It is starting to take shape and looks much better now. However, If you don't mind a suggestion.

Logout and then click on the Pilot Center link. There is a link or two in there that you might wish to only show if logged in.

Ok I moved the pilot center Links to a must be logged in status. I agree it needed to be done that way Thanks for the suggestion. Let me know what else I can do. It has bee many years since I skinned or coded for PHP. ;D

I Know this has been handled in another thread but  How do you get 2 siedbars(left and right) and a center column such as European Gateway has. I find I am having to scroll down my page to look at all the info.

EuGate way has their page setup like I want mine  ;Dhttp://www.europeangateway.info/

Can any one help

Thanks

I would recommend using a table.. simply because it is easy..

Please.. for the sake of your own sanity don't do it like i did. It was a pain to get sorted.

But, good luck

Tables work well but if you wanted to just use css you could do something like this for the columns on a 980px wide page ->

.main-left {
display:inline /*Fix IE floating margin bug*/;
float:left; 
          width:180px;
overflow:visible !important /*Firefox*/;
overflow:hidden /*IE6*/;
}

.main-center {
display:inline; /*Fix IE floating margin bug*/;
float:left;
width:590px;
margin:0 0 0 10px;
overflow:visible !important /*Firefox*/;
overflow:hidden /*IE6*/;
}

.main-right {
display:inline /*Fix IE floating margin bug*/;
float:right;
width:180px;
margin:0 10px 0 0;
overflow:visible !important /*Firefox*/;
overflow:hidden /*IE6*/;
}

And then your page would layout like ->

<div class="main-left">
   left column content
</div>

<div class="main-center">
   center content
</div>

<div class="main-right">
right column content
</div>

Looking gooood

The alignment is a bit off though, and the borders don't look right to me.. but that's personal preference

hey How do we get the Pilot Awards images to show up on the profile? I have awards and have put in their image URL in the admin panel but no awards image show up.

[joeri]

if you type awards in the search you will find the awnser ;D

[llju1]

Got it  ;D

the code was there Just had to move it under this line to display

<li><?php echo $award->name ?></li>

Like this:

<li><?php echo $award->name ?></li>
				   <img src="<?php echo $award->image?>" alt="<?php echo $award->descrip?>" />

Thanks everyone for help with all my questions. I now have my site looking the way I like it. :
