  Old  Help with tables?

I'm hoping this is a pretty simple answer, I'm fairly inexperienced at html.

I began coding a gaming website for me and a couple friends this morning,
and my issue is that there is a scrollbar on the right side of my page while it clearly does not need one.
I know this is being anal about things but I don't know why it's there.
If my image is not inside a table (which I'm using to center the image vertically),
then the right-side scrollbar doesn't show, but once I add the table, well the scrollbar shows up.

If it helps to see what I mean the website is at: http://www.teamd3rp.com/

Thanks for any help!

Hello,
I wouldn't say I'm an expert at html, but you could always add some CSS which would control the size of the content area (by putting a container around your content/header/footer etc). I'm working on a uni assignment this weekend, but if you are still stuck Monday I can try and help you out.

Cheers

I would scrap tables because tables are used for data not design, learn css it will save you loads of time later on down the line when it comes to updating the look of your website.
