USING BORDER BACKGROUNDS EFFECTIVELY!
There are a couple of different ways that you can format your page so that your text and photos sit properly on a bordered background. A lot of this will depend upon what program or Editor you use to create your HTML page documents. On each background preview page, I have given information about table alignment width and whether the page is to be left aligned, centred or right-aligned. These instructions are ONLY applicable if you use a WYSIWYG type HTML program, such as Front Page or Front Page Express. If you do your programming in Notepad or one of the other "straight" HTML programs, you will need to either copy and paste, or type in the following coding. It needs to go straight into the <body> tag. <img src="space.gif" alt="space.gif" width="xxxx" height="xxxx" align="left"> You will need to change the width tag to the width (in pixels) of the border on the background .gif or .jpg, and the height to the approximate height (in pixels) of your page. You will need to keep adjusting these until your page looks the way you would like it to. You may also need to adjust the size of the space gif depending upon the contents of your page. The spacer is simply a transparent gif file and is easily created in most paint programs. If however, you don't have access to such an animal...you can download the space gif here.
