Hi everyone. I have a big question (maybe it's easy??). I am fairly new to web design. I have been given these responsibilities by the non-profit i work with. a volunteer created our website, but is now gone and didn't really leave much for us to work with. He designed the site using FrontPage and it is written in .asp (i think) (we don't have FrontPage, I use a Mac, & have GLCS2). We want to completely change the look of the site, but there is one thing I can't figure out.

The design for the front page of the site has two rounded rectangles. Both of the rounded rectangles have information in them. He designed the page so that the rounded rectangular shapes got smaller or bigger depending on the amount of text within them. I've tried to put a shape in a CSS row or column and it just doesn't seem to work.

Is this a CSS thing? How would I go about doing this in GLCS2? Would this be called a "dynamic shape?"

Could I get a tutorial in the next Layers Magazine? :) Thanks for any input.
