I started from nothing but this forum and few dozen googles. But the helpful people here is what made it all a lot easier. Btw, I like how you describe looking at the whole design in order to plan the order of the css.
Okay, I've gone through my whole website making the coding corrections you outlined above. I also made a few changes in wrapper dimensions, etc, but now
the nav bar and page heading(Artistic...) are off center. Actually they're obviously centered for the wrapper, but it looks awkward and I'd like to move them to the center of the image. I managed to move the h3 heading, but messed up the navbar in my attempt. If there's a solution in Css only it would save a lot of work, as I've already had to go through the entire site's html pages.
Here's the link to a page as it is now My link
I looked and logically it is not off centre. However I think I know where you are struggling. Have you considered some visual detailing behind the text to the right to give it a visual balance? Maybe a 1-3 shade colour difference box effect with either rounded corners or some other funky corners effect? Or a gradient effect that gives that area something a touch brighter to balance things?
The reason I ask this is because if you move the header over it will essentially end up very unbalanced overall and it will look like the text is floating out of context.
Why not do a screen capture or mock-up on your graphic editing program to play with location. I am on the run right now and can't do it before I go out or I would show you.
