I have read a little and can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Am trying to get the footer image to be a clickable link back to my email address (robandjanelle@cox.net) Can anyone take a look at my footer html and see what I am doing wrong?
Also, does the footer look centered to you? My html says it is, but it looks a little to the left of the header to me.... if off-centered, can you tell me how to adjust it?

Hi :)
When I click on "Click here to email me ..." it opens up my email program with your email address in the "to" section. That's what you want, right?

Andy - I am sorry! It did work for a minute....but had a nasty purple border around it. I went into CSS and thought I would be really cool to remove it myself, but now I am back where I started....email doesn't link from the image. Can you look one more time and see what I just now messed up? Or post the instructions here and I will copy and paste?

Hi :)
Add the red; remove the green:
<img src="http://janellerodgers.smugmug.com/photos/88112598-L.jpg" width="800" height="279">
<a href="mailto:robandjanelle@cox.net">"><img src="/img/spacer.gif" /></a>

Here's what's in your footer:
<div align="center">
<img src="http://janellerodgers.smugmug.com/photos/88112598-L.jpg" width="800" height="279">
<a href="mailto:robandjanelle@cox.net"></a>
Make it look like this:
<div id="myFooter">
<a href="mailto:robandjanelle@cox.net"><img src="http://janellerodgers.smugmug.com/photos/88112598-L.jpg" width="800" height="279"></a>
</div>
And add this to your CSS:
#myFooter {
width:800px;
height:279px;
margin:0 auto;
}
#myFooter a img {
border:0;
}

<a href="mailto:robandjanelle@cox.net">
<img src="http://janellerodgers.smugmug.com/photos/88112598-L.jpg" width="800" height="279">
</a>

The code is backwards: <a href> should be first and then <img src>

Perfect. I think Andy said that a few posts ago, but I didn't get it. Sometimes things just don't compute that well! :)

Can someone give me the code that will bump up the footer closer to the navbar? Without all the wasted space in between?

Is there code to make a image clickable to send an email, yet also utilize the writeemail process used here: http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=222833&postcount=10
Thanks,
