I am not able to utilize the "stretchy" feature after customizing my website. In the appearance setting of the gallery, if I set this to custom, I do not get the stretchy feature but if I use the SmugMug appearance setting as in this gallery (click here (http://www.scottprokop.com/gallery/4193881_UxJz8/1/245069503_c3nXR#245069503_c3nXR)), the stretchy feature works perfect but then I lose my custom header. This problem may have occurred after modifying the flash slideshow using the instructions on this page (click here (http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow)).

Fixed you up - you had a missing closing div tag in your header.

JT, this is a really common customizing error (unclosed tags). While other unclosed tags don't usually cause big problems, unclosed DIVs can really wreak havoc with a page, often making it difficult to even get access to the normal administrative controls in the page.

Have you guys considered a validity check that checks for matching tags when people add customizations in their customize page? If not a broader set of tags, at least matching DIV tags?

I have thought about one, yes. Maybe in the near future, we will see :)
