The first thing I would do it setup DNS and IIS to accept www.comeandget.us right now it goes nowhere.

Both comeandget.us and www.comeandget.us work for me from the UK.

Using Firebug (the Firefox developers extension) I can see some 404s for skin.css and container.css. From the page source I'm guessing you've linked the css files in your skin.ascx and container.ascx - you don't need to do this because DNN will automatically pick up skin.css and container.css files and link them for you.

Rhys,

Thanks for the info.  You are correct that I linked in the CSS's in my ASCX file.  I used microsoft expression to do the skins.  In order to have it render correctly I needed the CSS's linked in.  I could find any other way to associate the ASCX file with the CSS.  Should I remove the links?  Will they cause a problem?

Thanks for the heads up.. waiting your reply

Just remove all stylesheet links so long as the sheets are named skin.css and container.css or skinaname.css and containername.css, then restart the application and force a refresh of everything.
