Thanks Kernan for the plug... and you are right... I have only tested with ie and firefox, but now apple have released safari for windows I will test with this too. As for the header repeating issue, this is due to the fact that I used some 'clever' code to resize images that are linked from other sites... I really want to be able to show the work of the UK blender community off as much as possible but hosting everyone's images is not really an option right now. I will be looking into how to make the resize code (which is currently javascript as mentioned above) a bit more robust... thanks to everyone who joined and responded here though... your feedback is really usefull. cheers, J Hi guys…

I also second the comment about the header image quality. -epat. :) It requires javascript enabled or you get repeating headers as some people have noted… – at least, that's as far as I can tell – but I don't like the way it loads first and then resizes – I'm on a pretty fast computer (reasonably new) and I can still see it load which looks ugly – esp. on konqueror (on linux) – blendernation doesn't have such bad loading…

I didn't have any problems when using a high speed connection, when all the images loaded and resized themselves. So I guess there's no real problem then, since, as we all know, all Brits have high speed connections and none of them use odd browsers like Safari or Opera. @fraek – are you on dial-up?

Website header repeats 2.2 times across screen. Breaks screen margin. Navigation links don't line up with header. Messy, messy. Unprofessional. First image on the page didn't finish loading.
