    Default Why do I have little red boxes?

    Hi -- I just added some new sideboxes: credit cards accepted, verified PayPal user, and Google AdSense. They all have an annoying red box that is showing up and I have no clue how to correct it. I'm using the apple_zen template.

    My page is at:

    If anyone can help it would be much appreciated!

    In your stylesheet, you have a section headed:

    Code:
    /* red */
    Find this bit:

    Code:
    h3.leftBoxHeading, h3.rightBoxHeading {
    	background:url(../images/sideboxleft-red.gif) no-repeat top left;
    	}
    and comment out the declaration

    Code:
    h3.leftBoxHeading, h3.rightBoxHeading {
    	/*background:url(../images/sideboxleft-red.gif) no-repeat top left;*/
    	}
    ----------------------

    PS: Why are you letting customers visit the competition via Google Ads??? Do these shops pay you a fee, or do you earn more from google re-directs than you do selling your own products?

    Thank you! It looks much better now, except for the gray background on the sidebox -- aarrgghh. Well anyway now I know where to mess with it (carefully!).

    As to your question, "PS: Why are you letting customers visit the competition via Google Ads??? Do these shops pay you a fee, or do you earn more from google re-directs than you do selling your own products?" -- I was hoping the ads would be more synergistic than direct competition, that is, my products are somewhat specialized, and my custom orders I had not envisioned as competing with the big-volume guys who can undersell anybody. We'll see -- I will keep an eye on it.

    Thanks for your help, appreciated!
