    no no,

    <div id="wrapperdiv">
    //all your current inner body html here
    </div>

    and that CSS in the stylesheet obviously.

    What you need to do is learn the fundamentals of HTML & CSS.
    Looks like you've just exported your stuff from Photoshop or something like that. Sadly, exporting things like that just doesn't work. You end up with messed up sites like what you've got there.

    You need to learn HTML & CSS in order to understand what's going on, and to be able to solve these problems. Here's 2 good books:

    I appreciate the advice, in the meantime I'm just looking for a quick fix to this problem. I've sliced the layout in photoshop, and I'm looking to position each of the images in css in such away that when the window resizes or there is a greater resolution than the one is was designed for(1024x768), they don't clump or overlap.

    Thanks

    the quick fix is to take the time and learn html & css properly yourself not post every single problem you have with your site.. if your trying to sell your services as a designer and u dont know these basic design languages what are you going to do if a client requests these??

    CSS
    #wrapperdiv
    {
    width: 800px;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right auto;
    }
    

    make 800 px the width of your widest DIV, but 800 should work anyways.
    I don't even know how it will work - give it a try.

    That code doesn't seem to work, the main_content bit is always out of alignment

    i think i can see where your problem lies.. but rather than tell you the answer i let you figure it out for yourself.. because if your planning on designing for the general public you need to know this stuff.. plus you only have 28 posts and most are you asking people to fix your website when you call yourself a designer!! enjoy html and css!! i love em!!
