My thoughts exactly, and it also looks like they may have some bugs to fix like here: http://doctype.com/why-floating-elements-being-pushed-around

Notice how the image covers the right hand nav??

That's what you get for not using tables :)

No, that's what you get for not preparing yourself for all the different shapes and sizes of user created content.

You can't prepare yourself for all the sizes and shapes created by the user. The minute you give up control of content you will end up with crap that like. If he had used tables at least the layout would have adjusted accordingly. It would not have looked pretty, but it would've been usable.
