First thing to do is put your pages through a validator or error
checker. You would surely pick up some of the mistakes then.

If you specify height and width in <img ...>, just use a pure
number. If you specify dimensions in CSS, always add the units.

About the list trouble, there have been recent threads on this.
An unordered list has list items as children, not further
unordered lists. A list item, on the other hand, can have an
unordered list within it.

I suggested ages ago to you, in your case, just use a table for
your page and be done. Can you afford to be going so blue in the
face?

About your graphic of the hands, it looks bad that it has a white
background, it is crying out for a transparent bg. Or change the
background of the header from grey to white. (This header is too
big height wise)

The toy is tables. Tables for you Al. Al and tables. All you need
is a two col job and Bob will be your uncle. Go ahead, abuse a
bit, you deserve it.
