This issue is old but still valid! 2 columns, 3 columns, whatever! It's
the columns that are the problem!

If the browser windows is small the table column with the description
for your pictures Italy and Sweden get 'squished' this way
->||<-
into a tall narrow column of words. I cannot figure how to explain this
more clearly!
DUMP the table like my example and the does *NOT* happen reguarless of
how small your browser window is!

Now do the same with your version!

See the words to the right -> for your picture squeeze into an oddly
tall and narrow column of words! Not pretty!

Maybe not! ;-D
The seagull 'collides' because you have it as a background image 'under'
the text! Not part of the page content, just decoration. In my example I
put it in the content, (it's your logo right?), and floated it.
