Positioning & Overflow Examples

The image above is positioned relatively. Consequently, the "Barbie" image below is positioned absolutely. The relative sizes of the two images in conjunction with the size of the viewer's browser resolution will technically seem to "mess" with the positioning. For example, my monitor's resolution is set at 240x1024, so there's quite a bit of white space around each image. Larger resolution settings will add more white space. But on a monitor with a resolution of 800x600, these images would look entirely different on the page than they do for me. That's something that I am always having to remind myself of when designing my websites...and when viewing others. Not all monitors are set the way mine is, so things will definitely look different.

Below is a multitude of the same image stacked upon each other.

I was born on 4 December 1969, which makes me a Sagittarius with Libra moon & Scorpio ascendant. But I was born like 3-odd weeks early, or so I'm told, so I need to look into the variations for a cusping Capricorn yet. At 10 years old, I knew I was at least bisexual, and that there was more for me than conventional Christianity. So eventually I came out to my family: In 1994 as a pagan & in 1995 as a lesbian. I interchangeably call myself either pagan or witch, and follow an eclectic solitary tradition. Despite the "chic-ness" of how it sounds, mine is a rather personalized path, currently more fluid than rigid, and will quite possibly stay that way. I've come to feel that life is more fluid than rigid, so I believe it's better to 'go with the flow' than try to hold back the flood.
