Dispite a brief panic when the old website ceased to exist and the new one failed to load, the new site is finally up and running A massive thank you to all of you kind folks who have answered my idiotic questions along the way.

However, I am still experiencing the site shifting to the left on pages that use colorbox (they gain a scroll bar that makes the page resize slightly). Does anybody know how I can stop this from happening?

I'm not entirely happy with the splash page, but it is what the boss wanted so that's what we've got.

Well done, the colorbox is working fine in my browser [Chrome] but yeah tell your boss G'kar says to get rid of that splash page. Goodness, I couldn't see where it said enter, until I realized that I had to scroll and it takes to long to load, which most viewers don't want to hang around. Apart from that you made a top job.

It's in this code that you have inserted. The padding:0 10px;

Thanks G'kar.

Thanks Eric, I guess that's what happens when you just copy and paste code. Do I need to change the padding value (to 0px?) or can I simply delete the entry altogether?

I would make it 0 for now.

Excellent job zinc! I do have to agree with G'kar. I would get rid of that opening sequence as it is very annoying especially if I was in a hurry or on a mobile device trying to get quick contact information or something. I would hate to have to wait for that introduction every time I visit the site. If you don't get rid of it all together at least put a Skip Intro link somewhere convenient.

But overall the site is very attractive well done!

Thanks guys.
The front page is just an animated gif on a button, so you can click on it to proceed at any time, although I appreciate that this is not made clear to a viewer so I'll look at addressing that when I get time. Well, assuming I can't brow-beat the boss into dropping it altogether of course

Oh why didn't I look into the source code and see it was an animated Gif and that one could click on at any time You made a great job but that needs to go, it's in no way clear that you can click at any time and even if it was, it's still wrong. We live now where things have to load quick, in fact we have always lived in those times. I think studies suggest if a site doesn't load in under 3 secs people will go somewhere else.

You also just need to make ALL the pages slightly smaller and that scroll bar will go away. At least on my monitor. I think I saw where the page size is 768. Looking at your designs you could easily drop that to 700, or maybe smaller, and there should be no scroll bar.

Another suggestion on the scroll bars would be to at least make all the pages the same length or similar length. That way they will either "all" have a scrollbar or "none" have a scrollbar so they will react the same. Then you won't have a page or 2 jumping left and when the scrollbar shows up.
