My Blogger blog bounces around

Can anyone help? My Blogger blog bounces (or, "jiggles") around. I uploaded a template from Our Blog Templates and it acts like some kind of sick slinky with a strange bounce. When I scroll down or up, everything in my blog bounces. Does anyone have a suggestion for fixing this. The website that I downloaded the template from doesn't have a contact page or email address.

When I first uploaded the template and created a few pages everything was fine. Then the next day my pages were jiggling and shaking. I am concerned that visitors will exit quickly because my blogger jiggles. I know I usually do when I encounter a site that seems deformed.

I have noticed that several Goolge blogger sites, I have visited, which have custom templates act strange too. I wonder, is the bounce a common occurrence? How do I fix a bouncing blog template within blogger?

I am having trouble seeing any bouncing or jiggling with your template.

Maybe someone can have a look and see if there are any issues.

Yesterday I was using Fire Fox and made an interesting descovery when I switched to IE6. In the Fire Fox browser the template is unstable but in IE6 it works fine. When I build websites, I always check them in both browsers, to see what differences there are and correct them, but I didn't think about checking the template in Blogger this way. I suppose this descovery will cause me to check everything that I create online in both Fire Fox and IE.

I always use Firefox and it wasn't jiggly for me.

I still have bouncing in Fire Fox and not in IE6. Must be something with my computer as Lisa suggested.

I'm not observing a "jiggle/bounce" when viewed in FireFox v2.0.0.15. Maybe something is wrong with your monitor. Do you have the "jiggle/bounce" when you visit other websites?
