    By funny I mean funny bad, not funny haha.
    I buoght the site from someone in the forums a few days ago, and I'm still having trouble getting things to look right. Some of the text shows, towards the bottom, and it seems like the pictures and background etc get loaded in, but are invisible...

    1)I tried deleting the htaccess file incase it was rerouting things weird or something... I know i've taken my sites offline by installing an htaccess file that I hadn't coded properly.
    2)I've looked through the index.php and css files and, from the code it seems like the images should display, but they don't.

    The site is: http://www.faviconicons.com

    Appreciate any help guys.

    The images don't look like they are there.

    here's some code from index.php
    In the hosting account, index.php is in root, and images are in /images.
    Here are the first lines from the css file.
    seems like things are pointing to the right place, right?

    The text is white so you cant see it without highlighting. And there is no directory called /favicon-icons/

    It seems your images are broken or corrupt. I tried fetching them directly using the image URL and got nothing. Verify your images work by opening them in a browser and/or a paint program, then if they work, reupload them. If they don't work, you're out of luck and need to get original copies from the person who sold you the site.

    One other thing (rare) is your images might've been uploaded wrong, using ASCII instead of Binary mode. Re-up your images in Binary mode. Media should never be upped in ASCII mode.

    yea, the text is white, but there's supposed to be a background image....
    true, there's no directory called /favicon-icons/ but its not looking for any images there, I'll fix that later.
    i noticed that too when I tried to access the images directly...
    But they do load on my computer, I'll try reuploading them...

    Thanks for the advice guys
