Hey.. Last night it all just seemd to come in the place.. All of a sudden I got how you use tables to create good themes :confused4
Thing is with images! How the hell do you get them to cover a % of the screen So like they are not all over the place on differnt res's... I have been using % in my tables instead of pixels but when I put a image in the table it will look good on one res then look ---- on another.. I want a fairly user friendly site to work on many res's.. How can this been done?
Im having trouble explaining it.. If you dont understand what I mean please ask and Ill try and word it better
Thanks. :beer:

percentages are good for building fluid layouts, use them to build the framework of the site, dont use them on images (unless your using vectors!) because as you said, they'll look ----.

Use as few images as possible. A logo and different div and background colors go a long way towards creating a nicer layout than with lots of pictures. :)

urm, repeat: in the css is commonly used to make gradients fill spaces on all resolutions and look the same .... I'd buy a book ...

All about experience, keep doing designs and you'll pick it up eventually ;)

you need to learn css now, and learn how to repeat image backgrounds. then you can use % or px. once you learn css really well, stop using tables, and move into the wonderful, but, complicated world of divs. :D

It does pay off in the end.
