O.P. Back to the webdesign fun
Ok guys. Heres my problem.

http://www.avidphotos.net/

It looks perfect in IE. Theres one minor spot where the background is missing, What do I need to alter in the CSS to fix that? I've got it just how I want it but need to fix that little bug.

Help is greatly appriciated as I just finished a website for a client and I'm back working on this one.

RE: Back to the webdesign fun
Well it appears in your css, you are not using your #container :undecided: which has your background:; tag. Your menu and content are just really fitting in your #head, making #content by itself which has no background:; tag which wont show teh shadow part.
I havnt tested it so im not sure but try replacing

code:
#content
{
    position: relative;
    top: -75px;
    z-index: 2;
    font-size: 12px;
    padding-left: 26px;
    padding-right: 26px;
    color: #FFF;
}

to

code:
#content
{
    position: relative;
    top: -75px;
    z-index: 2;
    font-size: 12px;
    padding-left: 26px;
    padding-right: 26px;
    color: #FFF;
background-image: url('../images/red/bg.gif');
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    background-color: #4B0000;
}

Thanks hmaster!

Now, How do I get it to align left in firefox. It looks fine in IE, just it's centered in Firefox and I dont know how it go there.

No such luck. It just left aligns the whole thing and the text is still centered.

I also tried removing it from the content div, No change in overall look or feel so I left it out, but the text is still centered.
