Used here: [link]

Thanks!

Also, I wanted to mention that this will probably be used in a month or two on my RPG website, Scourge ( [link] ), as a header for the specified area, which is why the credits aren't directly on the image. However, a credit page will be added to the 'Extricate' section and your name and the direct link to this deviation will be added there. It will be a bit before it will be used since it will be for a new version we're working on right now, so I wanted to check to see if I can use it in advance. If you'd rather me not use it, simply let me know and I won't use your stock image.

No problem!
It a very simple useage, but it looks good the way you've cropped it.

The site looks good, but I have a couple suggestions:

Try to host the images for your site in the same domain, not on another server like DA. Your "scourge__version_4__the_legend_by_golden_dreams" - [link] - loads very slowly because the image is hosted on a deviantart server. So, if deviantart is slow due to high demand or they are having problems with their servers, your header won't load, or will load slowly. If you host it on your own server with the site, it will load as fast as it can, always, and will only not load when the site is down completely.

Second, I use Firefox and your site does not center. Everything is pushed to the left side. I had this problem with sites I've designed until last year when I finally cracked it. The idea is to use CSS to center the HTML and BODY tags, and give the BODY tag an actual width (set the HTML tag-width to 100%), then create a DIV in the BODY tag with a set width and make it left aligned. Basically, you are telling the browser to center everything within a certain width, then adding a layer (the DIV) so everything inside that is left aligned. The DIV will stay centered on the screen but the text will be left aligned.

I had something else but I've forgotten it

Otherwise it looks good! Nice work

Thank you very much!
And thanks again for the advice, it was really helpful! Before I upload all the headers onto my domain, though, I'm going to wait to make sure all the stock providers are okay with it. It will be a month or two before we get the new version started, we have plenty of time.
And that's fine, it's not supposed to be centered, haha. But our new version will feature a centered layout, I believe. Thank you very much for the coding advice, though! I'll be sure to let the person doing our coding know.

No problem!
Good idea. I can't imagine you will have much trouble from the stock providers, most of them are fine with their stuff used for websites as long as they are actually asked beforehand

Ah fair enough
If you or your coder needs any help just ask and I'll do my best

Okay, I was pretty worried because it seems like they all have the 'ask me before using on websites' in big bold and red, so it seemed like they didn't really like having their things on other websites, haha.

And I'll keep that in mind! I appreciate it

Ah...yes some of them do have that. The problem is many people use our stock images on Horse websites and the like and don't credit at all (or they will just fav and run). Better safe than sorry.
