If you want to use a bordered background on your site, but you want the text to begin to the left of the border so that it's readable, just use these simple instructions.  Copy the following lines, and use your HTML editor to paste the code into your document, after the <body> tag.

<!-- Begin copying code -->
<table><tr><td><img src="invisible.gif" height=0 width=100></td><td>
<!-- (page goes here - you may delete this line after adding your page) -->
</td></tr></table>
<!-- End copying code -->

Here is the invisible image. Just copy it, and upload it to the same directory as your page. Put your mouse over the box below, right click, and choose "Save As."

You can change the width according to your background, although 100 should be fine for most.
