element placement

I wanted to know if it is normal when aligning images on a page with css to be constantly fliping between the browser and the code to check for placement. For example, I wanted to put a logo.jpg in the top center of my family homepage, I would set the left margin to x amount of px and it would be off. So, I would go back make and adjusment and check again on the browser. Is there an easeir way of doing this?? And how does css setup the margins, from the left border of the jpg, the center of the jpg, or what? You can check out my site in question at <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mjmcdonaldfam.com">www.mjmcdonaldfam.com</a><!-- w -->. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.1. The logo should probably be the background of an <h1>, which can be centered with a text-align:center.
2. The site nav and contacts are two unordered lists and should be marked up that way.
3. You shouldn't be dumbnailing your photo album thumbnails. Create correctly sized images for those so the page can load (a LOT) faster.

With Quanta there may not be a better way but I thought it had a split screen mode with its editor in one part and a preview in the other.I am confused on the thumbnail part. How can I provide a preview of the pics, or at least offer the large ones without a long load time?Use a graphics program (The GIMP is one, there are also dedicated ones) to create images the right size for the thumbnails.Basically what your saying is to scale the image in gimp to the 60px by 60px size, then post those as the thumbnails instead of the large photos scaled down with html?Exactly.thanx for the help. I appreciate it.
