Hi, I am new to the forum as well as to web designing. I am using asp.net master pages and I am trying to make a basic template to use in future projects. However I am new to this and need an experienced eye to show me my errors and offer suggestions.
My goal is to have a 3 column fluid design with header and footer. The left and right column I want 150px. Other thoughts I have yet to do is actually work on the header section. Basicly I want a logo area (on the left side) a place for login registration on the right and below a menu div.
I would like someone to take a look at what code I have. One major problem is there is a space between the left and center content area I would like to free up, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet in the css. So if you would take a look and please show me how to clean it up. Thanks in advance. Just be warned it is an ugly settup as is, and I am trying to figure things out.

<form id="form1" runat="server">
