hi ya'll I got this nice template for my website. I edited it then I upload it and it look really crappy here the address http://www.geocities.com/counterm7/.
There lots of boxes and stuff I hate it can someone help me?I've trying to figure this out for two days now and I can't seem to find the answer. :dunno

It's not loading any images for me...

Looks like you're trying to run Javascript- does Geocities allow that?

If you are serious about having a site, try to get a real hosting service, that will allow you to run server side scripts, and you'll be a lot better off.

I had to chance all the <'s and >'s to ['s and ]'s to get the code to show up, but this is the part of your template that is probably screwing with the geocities server...

Don't know for sure as to what thier policies are, but I think they are pretty picky, and pretty much want you to use thier templates..

Yes what he said, if your wanting to run java scripts then your going to have to go try a real hosting company.

Well, one problem you have is that your images are in the wrong directory.. create a new directory inside of couterm7 called images and put all the images in that directory

according to the templete, images should be here
http://www.geocities.com/counterm7/images/

NOT here
http://www.geocities.com/counterm7/

OHHHHHHHHHH OK OK thx illegel and were you saying one the server check your post check your post to me?

[[sG] Dutchman]

ok I'm in the file manager and should I create a file for images and put them un the sub directory?and leave the other files like (index,forums,ect...)in the counterm7?

[LA_MERC_T4rg3T]

Yes, it looks like the templete wants the pictures in a subdirectory called images but it has to be a subdirectory off of counterm7

[[sG] Dutchman]

ok

[[sG] Dutchman]

ok I did it and it still looks the same. :dunno

[LA_MERC_T4rg3T]

If you did it correctly then this would work

http://www.geocities.com/counterm7/images/bdiplomacy.gif

It doesn't work so you didn't do it correctly. I'm sorry but there is only so much help that someone can assist you with before you have to get someone else to look at it completely.
