Tables not lining up on site & my programmer isnt responding to my emails

    Hi

    I have a PLR product that I am redeveloping - the existing programmer I contracted has done a botch job adding new graphics to the site & now the tables don't line up.

    The original programmer used lots of tables and with the new graphics the main section is no longer in alignment.

    My existing programmer has been paid in full & is now not responding to emails and I really need some help to align these pages.

    Would anyone be interested in helping? Please PM me & I will give you the site details to check out - then if you think you can help we can work something out.

    Thanks
    Scott

    your problem is multiple:

    1.
    if you have a site,
    then it is YOUR job to do web design - no money can pay for the huge and tiring work that needs to be done !!!

    2.
    if you need help - the very least would be that you pub lish the site-URL else NO help possible and help should in such cases be public to share with all to avoid future double posts of similar problems.

    hence
    if you publish your URL then you may receive help to do the job YOURSELF. NO PM pls!

    Hi hans

    in response to your post -
    1. yes it is my responsibility - it is also my responsibility to maximise my strengths and understand that there are experts out there in their field and as I am not a programmer - I must rely on the expertise of these people.

    2. Yes I am capable of using PHP Designer for minor editing of config files - but I have had NO Education in programming and I am willing to negotiate with someone who is willing to help and understands PHP.

    Also I haven't published the URL as I am not sure about the policies of the forum and I felt the PM board would be the perfect option.

    I'm sorry if I offended you by my post - my intention was to ask for help and welcome those who are willing to provide it.

    most here may have never had education in programming - me either - all self-study and ten thousands of hrs of work.
    HTML / web design is most simple and very basic skills/knowledge needed only. the most important is time and effort only.

    tables are simple and straight forward:
