First of all Hello everyone. I'm pretty much new in web designing. I read the html/xhtml and css tutorials but they're not yet quite clear in my head so i'd apreciate some help 1. What's the best way to make a certain template for a site? For example I want to make a site with a picture on the top, then a horizontal navigation bar under it, a vertical navigation bar on the left, and in the center some space with the main content (on which I want on the top to have another 2 boxes that will contain for example links to the lastest news and latest forum posts). I don't need a code for this template, I just need someone to tell me what exactly should I use to structure all this. Tables work?, can/should I do it only with div?, frames?2. Here's a perfect example of what i meant at question number 1: <<...>> So, looking at this site, and considering the answer that you gave at question no.1, how do I add those images as borders to the site. you can see he has image borders around all the sections, different type, different size. What's the method used for making them.I tried to look at the site's source but it's kinda overwhelming and I know there are a lot of people on this forum that can give me a simpler explanation, like for a starting "designer" Thanks
