Hi Jenni - When I translate it I'm seeing the white frame at the top but that is standard behaviour. I'm not seeing some elements pushed down and others not. You didn't mention any particular browser or platform - I am looking at in Firefox 3 on a Mac. While looking at it I noticed that there are a few 404s. http://fossilbyte.com/1/images/wrapper-bg.jpg http://fossilbyte.com/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRight.gif http://fossilbyte.com/1/images/content-top.jpg http://fossilbyte.com/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif Also, it appears that you are creating space in #content-bottom by using empty paragraphs and when google translates them they aren't taking up space any more as google is removing the non-breaking space. You would be better of to create space with padding in the stylesheet. Hope that helps.
