    Exclamation Website looks distorted when uploaded but fine on local machine PLEASE HELP!

    Hello,

    I am building a site off of a template and I have a major issue. The site looks fine when previewing it on my computer or in flash


    But as soon as it is uploaded it distorts the site

    Notice the non-centered tabs and messed up text

    I would really really really appreciate any help

    REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE!

    The images are not found. I would say if it is a little off center that might just be browser specific, where IE will most likely have problems, but Firefox will look perfect in my experience.

    As for the "messed up text", I would suspect that the font is not embedded or something to do with the textFields.

    Upload the source for better help.

    I really really appreciate your response. It means alot you at least replied to my thread...what I ended up doing was just shifting everything inside the flash. It looks wierd inside flash and when I preview it on my local machine, but when I upload it it looks normal. Now I'm having the issue that the first time the site comes up random errors (like the text may be scrunched or theres a random little u in the title) appear. But when you reload it it fixes...any ideas?

    I'm noticing some errors on your site, I'm using Firefox and when I goto the website, it preloads to about 50% and then loads up, then when the dark gray rectangle rotates in, it loops about 6 times, then it finally shows the about page.

    Not sure if you can see the same things.

    As a word of advice, if you are "editing" a template, that is not completely original I personally wouldn't advertise as "designed by", probably "redesign by" but that's a slippery slope.

    I've used a template recently, but I'm not going to take credit for the design because it was a template.
