center web site

[lpalatino]

hello

here is a link to my website:

www.lindseypalatinophotography.com

i would like for my website to fit in all web browsers without adding scroll bars. i'm pretty sure i've centered it correctly...i just want it to fit in all browsers.

any advice?

I see your just using an image in a table.
that image will always display the same width in pixels no matter what browser your using, or computer or screen size.

The user viewing the site may or may not have to scroll depending on their screen and/or resolution.

that way of creating a site will also make any type un-readable by search engines, thus making it invisible to searches made by a user.

Most people have screens to accomodate 1000px wide, so to be safe and know that 95% of people wont have to scroll, I suggest keeping all, images in this case no larger than 1000px wide

thanks !

any suggestions on making this site a different way? i started in photoshop and sliced. should i only work in dreamweaver for layout?

[FLCL]

I only use dreamweaver for layout now, sometimes depending on the site I will use photoshop to get a general idea on how I want the page to look, with navigation and header usually being the only the slices I end up using.

95% of type I always type out in html so it becomes visible to search engines along with an html navigation in the footer.

A good example of a site I built with CSS & HTML is at:
http://www.chimo25.com

View the source code and you will notice there are no tables just div containers that link back to a css file thus leaving little for a crawler to have to filter out.

That whole site listed above was created entirely in dreamweaver except the blog section which is a wordpress blog.

Also, try to minimize the number of images on your site so that it will load a little bit faster.
