   Does anyone have time to help me spot my cascade error?

   Here's a screenshot of how the site looks in my browser preview: https://www.c3advertising.com/client_wip/SVCACF_2/images/display_correct.jpg
   - background image across the top
   - red display font to the left and right
   - transparent white color behind text in the next panel.

   Here's how it looks for real: https://www.c3advertising.com/client_wip/SVCACF_2/

   Made with Zeitgeist, Harmony.

   Bonus points to anyone who finds the joke in one of the images near the bottom.

   Thank you!

   Don't know if related but your "fat lady sings" image is 201x201 and your others are 200x200.

   Ha! No. One has nothing to do with the other.

   OK. I was just wondering why the lady doesn't flow into the space correctly.

   Not a lady, actually; a man in drag. I think the photo is from "The Birdcage". It's an intentional decision I made about the CSS, to make the images create a kind of arch around the building when viewed on a desktop. The shape echoes the neoclassical entrance and the arch over the door. The effect is lost on a mobile device, and leaves that gap, but it turns out to be an acceptable trade-off.

   The building is prominent and unusual in our city, in the center of town and on a major street, so everyone has driven past it, but only 0.6% of people have ever been inside. So most people have no idea that theater goes on inside it. And there's even less awareness of the Foundation that supports it in a structure that is awkward, to say the least. I'm using every brand trick at my disposal to increase awareness.

   I made the arch shape as an experiment, pretty much expecting it to be rejected for the reason you mentioned, but the Board loved it, so it's a thing now.
