well i don’t know. but i did check out your site. I think you need to add some padding or something to the content. it’s all to the left of the screen. So far that the text dissapears into the side of the screen.

Which browser did you view my site with?

Ive added a 15px margin to my main content, what you you think? too much ? too little?

What type of database does your host support?

Movable Type (used to, I think it still does) works with Berkley database and postreg sql.

Or, you can use blogger and have it redirect to your domain (ie: yoursite.com/blog)

Kind of un-related, but:

If your on 1&1 (Only guessing, as the advert is there and I too am, with no MySQL support) then I feel your pain. I tried a free host (http://www.000webhost.com/) for WordPress, and link to it. It worked fine until I couldn’t upload anything, their server said it refused to do anything, basicly.
