:confused: is there a way to give the tables (using front page) a soft edge instead of the square two dimentional look? i would prefer a rounded or blended table, but ill take shadowed if nothing else. its been a while since ive done anything with FP and i really hate how the page im doing looks.

HERE IS THE SITE (http://WWW.LIBERTYPOWERSPORTS.COM) if anyone has any other suggestions to make it look not so cheesy.. let me know.

THANKS!

You can solve this with some simple graphics:
Add extra boxes to your table, to place the graphic images
which will be rounded shaded corners, sides and top/bottom.
They can be any size or thickness.
If you want to do this with a 'liquid' (resizable) table,
there are some other cool techniques that only require
minimal graphic images.

UnCheesing your Site:

(1) The dropdown menu items across the top are almost unreadable.
You are trying to do a fancy text-style at a size too small to be legible.
Either double the size of the row items (make two rows) or find a better font.

(2) The graphics are harsh, cartoony and coarse in their crudeness and color.
The solution is to replace them with better graphics or find an artist who can.
