The thing is you use the same <td> tag for the avatar and post message. That might be why. Try adding align="top" in that <td> tag and see what happens. :)

yah that didint work, i tried using different <td> tags, and it looks a little better, but when a thread isnt long, the distance between the avatar and the begining of the text is a few inches, heres a screen shot in my next post.

I think it's centered, but doesn't show in your code.
