I've removed the width for the center div and the line-heights from
elsewhere now, but the text size in the images themselves aren't
exactly my problem. That's how I received the material from the layout
designer. I just puzzle the pieces together (and that's one heckuva
jigsaw puzzle, I tell ya). Precision placement is what it is.

And from what I could tell, the position of the center <div> is still
way down on the page.

I know, the text sizes suck, and I'm more or less forced to outfit a
lot of the font-size in pixels, since it needs to fit within the images
they're supposed to be layered on top of (read: used as background).
Personally, I would've gone for percentages, but that didn't appear to
be the case of the guy who actually designed this thing.
