Pink- I actually did copy the code and replaced for this page- that's why I am so stumped!

The website builder program I used automatically packaged the files for me- it placed files in its own page folder.

Thanks for checking cocheezie :)

It's black here, too; I'm using Chrome. The picture is adorable.

The second link you provided is a black page. That's it. 

I went into View Source and I see you're using CSS. I took two classes in CSS and I hated both of them. Still don't understand it. I'm sorry.

Sorry, was too tired yesterday and passed out on the couch.

Is there a way for you to upload HTMLs directly? I'm not familiar with website builders and how they handle uploads since I prefer to code by hand, but I think I found the error. On lines 13-17, you have these (this is for Friends_Layouts.html):
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="./Friends Layouts_files/iWebSite.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="./Friends Layouts_files/iWebImage.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="./Friends Layouts_files/WidgetCommon.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="./Friends Layouts_files/navbar.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="./Friends Layouts_files/Friends_Layouts.js"></script>
Your directory structure suggests that it should be Friends_Layouts_files (missing underscore). So none of the javascripts are executing. Can you change those and try to re-upload?

If it helps, for the the link without the underscore, the page is all black with no pictures loading, and in the link with the underscore, the page is the same as the other times with the blue not reaching the top and the pictures are loading

I've pinpointed the problem, but to be blunt, the code generated by the builder is a horrible mess. This particular div is causing the issue:
Code:
166  <div style="height: 2687px; line-height: 2687px; " class="spacer">  </div>
Manipulating the height is a workaround, but the odd thing is that there are text that are attached to that div instead of the main div. So you have a div with text, attached to a div with text, attached to another div with text, such that you can't move any one of those without screwing up everything else.

I would try deleting that line, and then re-copypaste all the text into the correct div (I can't say for sure which div that is, it depends on your builder), so that it all appears in one div instead of sliced up into many different ones.

And yeah, it's a bad culprit line. You can try to tweak the height a bit to start off. Where it says "height = 2687px", reduce the height bit by bit, you'll see the blue box slowly creep up to where it's supposed to be. Bad thing is, some of the text towards the bottom will start to creep upwards and overlap with other texts too. If I were you, I'd cut those text out, paste it in Notepad or something, then once I have the blue box where I want it to be, I'd find a way to repaste that small portion of text. That way you won't destroy the page as much.

Some years ago I turned my hobby of making web pages into a side business to supplement my disability that I was on at that time.  Talk about the best way to take the fun out of something!  Haven't done a webpage since!  The plus was that I managed to learn HTML!  Which is now passe in favour of other formats,  lol
