Web Designers Project

What I mean, is the layout is not a sliced, entirely comprised of image sort of layout. Just pure CSS to position it, like a top bar, and a sidebar and the content area. It still has images, but it's not mainly made of them.

So you dont want a "CSS design", you want a web site template.

I know what you want now Tim, but I dont know what sort of design you want

No idea of what design, as you havnt told me

I dont know what you quite mean by the term "CSS design" as CSS is a sheet style, which could be made out of tables with borders and backgrounds which is pretty basic to do. I understand from the point of Joe, I think you need to re-explain yourself Tim as Joe could create the design in photoshop which then could be coded using CSS or which ever code you wish to use.

Css layouts usealy refer to layouts that are built threw styling.
Html layouts for exsample position the eliments threw tables.
In a css layout, everythings just divs, which would all appear uniformly on a page.
Css is then added, to position all the eliments, and create the layout itself, As without its only information that would later fill the layout.
If you follow. And after playing around with it, i have to admit creating layouts in css does have advantges over tables, and not just in takeing up less space, you do get far better control over all the eliments.
Its only down side is IE that refuses to accept W3 standards and insted makes a best effort attemt to **** up any code your write, which is where most the diffuclty comes from.

Alot of people understamet css and u just get the boring blocky layouts with 3 divs hanging together, which realy is a waste of its capablety, thybag ive gone somewhat beoned that, althogh only so far since ive aimed it to look reliavly simlar to my previos site layout which was table based, rather than use the full potental of css and doing wacky liquide stylings etc

I've decided that I'm gonna do the layout as I know what I want - it's easier in the long run.

I wanna see the layout though
