Don't be so harsh:P . Fall Out Boy Layouts (http://falloutboylayouts.net). They are cut out very poorly in the header. I just tried to get it up as soon as possible but I'm going to fix that. I also tried to add a wrapper (shadow), but damn IE doesn't support transparency! I was also unsuccessful with all those javascript hacks to get around that.

Anyways tell me what you think about the design/ad placement. I wish images next to ads would be allowed. YPN allows them but does not 'encourage them'. Hopefully I get a lot of SE traffic, because of the domain and my newly learned seo skills.

The only thing that I noticed (not to be too picky) is next to the affiliates image it says DIV.. May be just me but I think it goes to the next line or maybe a type? But hey, its a great site ill tell you.

that is quite a nice design i'll say. Simple, yet appealing to the eye. One suggestion i have is to setup a live preview system for your layouts so they can be seen in action :)

I don't know how to make one, and I'm too lazy to make a profile for each layout I make. Is there a script that would do that?

I am pretty sure there is one out there.. I have it on my site I would send it to you but I dont know what files it is.. Or you could just take a screenshot of it. I big one then a smaller one.

It's actually pretty easy to make. I'll just copy a default layout, and insert the code. Then I'll just make a copy/rename that file and change the code for different layouts. It's not automated, but it would only take like 30 seconds. Thanks, I'll add that feature tonight.
