You could try this for a start.

- replace "rbline.gif" widh <hr>
- replace <body background="comp6.gif" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> widh <body>
- replace
<img src="arrow5.gif" border="0" width="30"height="20">
widh
<img src="white_image.gif" border="0" width="10"height="10">

- Use stylesheet instead of font-tags
eg.

body {
background-color: #001923;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:normal;
color : #FFFFFF;

}

a:link, a:visited, a:active {
color: #FFFFFF;text-decoration: none;font-size:11px;;
}
a:hover {
color: #8D959C; text-decoration: underline;font-size:11px;
}

Then again why setting font-family and font-size especially in pix.
Let do the browser use there standard font and size, because I like mine
Gothic font. 12px is way too small for a 3200x1200 screen. With other
words let the visitor decide what kind of font and font-size they like
best with there browser/screen setup. If you wanted to set a font-size
then mine advise is to use "em" instead of "px", "pt". That way the font
size is scalable.
