ooh you use google chrome too! lol
My screen resolution is 1280 X 1024. So yeah, that's probably why. I tried to upload a screenshot of what it looks like for me but the file was too big. lol
But to give you an idea, your site on my computer goes to about the middle of your "Get YouTube video" bookmark.

Ah okay, yeah, that's why. I wish I knew how to do a PHP site that would automatically adjust to people's resolutions, but I don't, so I have to just make it a size that will work for the average. I'll play around with an alternate layout though.

And yeah, I hate IE... it takes forever to load for me, and ever since I "upgraded" to IE 8, it started putting a random white line on the outside of my layouts. Chrome is so much better!

Alrighty, it's up! Check it out! www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/There are two versions of the layout now; they're exactly the same, just different-sized. When you click to enter the site, you should be automatically directed to whichever page best suits your resolution - one is for 1024 x 768 and higher, and the other is for lower resolutions. (Amy, it still won't fill your screen, but it should look a little bigger for you now. I couldn't make it any bigger without remaking the layout completely because I made it at 1024 x 768.) If you are like me and use Chrome, you might need to refresh your browser or even right click in the frame and select Reload Frame, if you're getting any of the old purple and green graphics. Let me know if you notice any glitches. I made little changes on a lot of the pages, so take a look around. Hope you enjoy the layout!

Thanks! I was just gonna add, I changed the skin on the forum to match, obviously, but if anyone would prefer one of the old skins, they're all still up - just go to your profile, and you have the option to change skins there.

I love it, Julie!! Looks great! I can't tell you how it looks for me, because I'm on my neighbor's laptop (babysitting right now). But I don't care, I love it. I don't go on the actual site much anyway though, I read the stories in separate windows.

Whoa.... did you happen to change it a little since earlier today? It's so much brighter. Of course, maybe it's just the switch between the laptop and my computer.

The site or the forum skin? I did change the forum skin a little bit. Is it too bright? It's not on mine, but i know what you mean; the colors look different on different monitors.

Yeah, I was talking about the forum skin. It's pretty bright on mine. But I'll probably get used to it just like all the other skins, so don't worry about it.

Is it the yellow?
I can try and play around some more to see if I can make it more muted. I didn't want it to be too murky mustard yellow. I hate making skins on here, cause it's all a matter of trial and error... there's no way to preview what it will look like or anything, so it's basically change... update... go look... go back and change again... update... go look... It's very user-unfriendly LOL.

I tried some less bright shades... let me know if it's better!

Actually, I guess I didn't mean "bright"... it was more the contrast between the yellows and red. But it's all good, I'm seriously used to it already. LOL
