Thank for all the help, I have a decent idea on where I am going.
I would like to make a main image but I am not to good at that so we'll see.
EDIT:
Question. I was thinking about making a menu the became highlighted on mouse over... I have done this before with tbles, but I was wondering if I could do it using div in a css.
If I need to use java script could I change the background-color property of the div class on mouseover?
