just as the subject says, i created my site on a widescreen laptop in 1600×900 resolution and when i look at it in lower resolutions nothing is centered
basically a mass jumble.

fromwhat i have been able to get from the forums here it has something to do with the css code, i have searched and tried every suggestion but still cant get it right.
site preview is here as i have not published it yet due to the issue

@acs_cstm_dsgns,

Some of the Website Tonight templates will not be ‘Fixed-width’ templates, meaning that they will reformat to match the resolution of the visitors screen. We would recommend looking for templates that do support ‘Fixed Width’ sizing.

If you are content with your current template and do not want to change it, you can research how to incorporate CSS into your template to force a fixed width. The following may help:

How do you incorporate CSS into your template to force a fixed width? I am having the same problem with my site.

Typically, when you want to set a fixed width, you will set the widths of your site using pixels instead of percentages. You may want to check out this site I found at:
