Default my website / blog

Just wondering if a couple people could take a look at my site http://www.westcoastabbey.com and let me know if it looks okay. I have a laptop and a computer at home and the laptop runs linux and it looks great. I spent hours fiddling with the formatting as I have not used wordpress before and had a lot to learn and had to hunt to find files. I looked at it at the end of the day on the other computer and was horrified. So then I spent a few more hours trying to make it look okay on both and before I throw the towel in and say "good enough" I just want to double check that it is not horrid on anyone else's system

Also, anyone here know about the geoblogging thing? I really would like to have my posts tagged on a map but I can not find anything about how to do this online that I actually understand. I can do it via TravelPod but I want to have everything on my own website. It seems like it should be simple enough but it really REALLY isn't.

I'm using Firefox 3.0 at 1280 X 768 and it looks good.

EDIT: In internet explorer 6.0 the first letters of Skype Status, Posts by Location and Subjects/Tags are half cut off.

Oh I believe you! Because for whatever reason on the linux box and the pc they are different distances from the left margin. It is really stupid and has been making me angry. So now for you I just will add in another annoyance: the margin (in the wrong place) is on top of the text.

I'm starting to not care, looks good on the machine I'll have with me lol

Aliz, awesome...what browser are you using?

I'm using a mac and Firefox 2.0.0.14

also looked at Safari 3.1.1

Looks awesome! Can't wait for the content. You have a really clean design layout. Something that won't exhaust my eyes. Like it lots.
