Real Estate Directory

Hey guys take a look at my Real Estate Directory if you would.
Could one of you guys give me the html code to align the 4 buttons on the right to have the same height as the map.

<TABLE><TR>
	<TD ROWSPAN=4>map</TD>
	<TD VALIGN="top">button 1</TD>
</TR><TR>
	<TD VALIGN="middle">button 2</TD>
</TR><TR>
	<TD VALIGN="middle">button 3</TD>
</TR><TR>
	<TD VALIGN="bottom">button 4</TD>
</TR></TABLE>

Code (markup):

 

It's Alivvvvve!

 

One more thing, how would I change this image http://www.national-real-estate-directory.com/sealofguarentee.jpg to have an image with html text (the one below) in the middle of it?

 

I just had a quick glance around but these are a few first impressions...
I dont much care for the navigation. Most people expect some type of nav on the left side. Also the buttons dont really distinguish themselves as "Click on me to go places".
The content of the site looks quite good though. I like the forums page etc but the nav and front page layout could use some work IMHO.

 

You can use tables or CSS.
Tables:
Cut the frame into top, bottom, left & right.
Make a table with 3 by 3 cells. Merge the top row. Repeat with the bottom. Place sliced jpgs in the correct cells.
Add text to central cell.
Basically.

CSS
.topslice {
background-image: url("images/top-slice.gif");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}

I havent tested either of these, but it should roughly answer your question and you can tweak from there.

 

Thank you so much, guys! It's coming together

 

Look at it now
