I'm in the middle of making a Pokemon FR\LG walkthrough, and I'm trying to make it a little cleaner looking.

The images aren't done, so it's mainly text, but I'm wanting it to look at least somewhat cleaner. Any suggestions?

I think for a walkthrough the most important thing is always to be able to read it, so switch to dark text on light background. Most walkthroughs are monospace fonts, but if you want to keep this one that's OK too.

Ok, I'll change up some things for the style sheet and see what I can come up with.
As for the font, what do you suggest?

It never hurts to use Courier New, but if that's a bit too basic for you what you have is fine XD

I'll try that out and see what it's like. Thanks.

The purpose of a walkthrough is to help someone. While catchy, interesting and I understand exactly what each section is supposed to be about, I think you're titles can be a little confusing to someone without a clue as to where to go. I suggest having a small list of the physical areas covered by the guide, in addition to the section names.
On Firefox and IE, you're Fame Checker FAQ (and other .txt guides) comes out as wall of text, but only on your site, it's normal when I visit it at Gamefaqs (yep it's me).

Hey Gold.
I know about the problem with the FC FAQ, as it's a format problem. Apparently, it doesn't like anything made with EditPad. I'm working on an HTML version.
As for the Walkthrough, I'll put the locations next to the section names.
I will as soon as I reinstall XAMPP, anyway. Gotta test some stuff out for it first.
