Very nice and clean. Although for the stripes in the header, i highly recommend you changing the color to the same blue in .tcat ;)

thanks gio, im not sure about doing that as it would then be the same colour as the font in the title. Maybe i could swap them round. Hmmmmmm........

Yes, try swapping them around a bit and play with it.

I like it a lot :)

I do have a question for you if you dont mind Jay. I have been trying to make the bar that says the catagory name thinner that standard, but if i make the gradient image thinner (shorter) then it just puts one image on top of the other. Could you tell me how you made it as thin as you did please ?

The only real complaint I have is the font size, it is *ultra* small on 1280x1024. So small that unless I am actually looking right at it and trying to read it, I hardly can. IMO, you shouldn't have to try to read anything, you should just be able to.

No other complaints thus far, however.

I just halfed away the cell padding to 3px and removed the inner and outer borders. Admin CP -> Style Name -> Style Vars

Thanks, I have increased the font size.

Maybe try increasing the font size another 1-2px's or 1-2pt's depending on what you're using. By default, if using em's, I normally use font-size: .70em; for text.

Again, just my suggestions since you attract users of all kinds :).
