You should put the zone files on a website somewhere so people can download them ahead of time

I'm sorry but your website looks... bad. Really bad.
The website makes me want to not visit your zone.
Does sscentral still offer hosting?
That would be a first step.
It not only looks bad, the coding style is even worse.
You have two doctypes... two body tags, two html tags and so on.
Other than that, you used tables for your layout which is considered bad.
And "Best viewed with" is something I consider bad. It's not really needed if there's a huge compability problem, which is usually only the case if you rely on heavy javascript like several Web 2.0 websites.
Now that I think of it. I use Opera, so maybe it's only ugly for me Maverick - Tue Mar 06, 2007 5:17 am Post subject:
It's not the best website, but I've seen worse.
Slicer, if you're interested I can host your website on ss-network.net . (I'm going to offer free ss-hosting there anyway.)
(subdirectory or subdomain; 1GB space, MySQL, PHP, etc etc).

After further investigation I think the crappy looking code is Bravenets fault.
Accept Mavericks offer and it won't be that bad at all.
EDIT: Yes, I have to apologize, the coding style is all Bravenets fault.
Apart from the doctype being html4, but the file being xhtml and that there's no color attribute in hr it's ok.

I was bored, so I removed the tables from your layout and centered it.
How does it look?
All div and css.
It looks like this in Opera, Firefox and IE7.
I didn't dare to try what it looks like in IE6. Smong - Tue Mar 06, 2007 8:40 am Post subject:
