my home page is www.microcosm.smugmug.com (http://www.microcosm.smugmug.com)

i would like to have a more visual appealing home page ...

how can i:

a) have more of a space (extra empty line) between my title and my nav. bar
b) have my nav bar more to the right (justify right)
c) is there a better way to center my featured galleries that are under my slideshow?

d) where my search bar is --- it is right on the edge of the page (similar to my guestbook where the text goes right to the edge except on both the right and the left) ... is there a way so i have a bit of a space, thus the text not reaching right to the edges.

thanks.

More space above your navbar:

#navcontainer {margin-top:20px;}

Aligned right:

Make this change to your CSS (though I don't think this looks better than centered given the way the rest of your page is laid out)

#navcontainer ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
text-align: right;
}


Centering the featured galleries:

The container these are in is already centered. Without a border, you can't tell that because of the way the titles are laid out (left justified within their cell. You can see that they are more centered and perhaps address your perception issue by putting a border around the featured box. You can do a simple border with this CSS:

#featuredBox {border: white 1px solid;}


Space to the right of the search bar:

#mysearch {margin-right:15px;}

thank you ........ and you were correct, by having the nav on the right, it didn't look very good.

again, thank you ........

can i be a pest again, ... off hand, do you know how i can get a space on the right and left side of my guestbook, so that the text isn't right on the edges of the page?
