My new site BETA - your help required, free beer

Ok, I lied about the beer, but...
I have been working on the backend technology of my site and have a Beta up at
http://www.adultindustryresources.com/drupal5
I've just moved across all the Uk girls entries, and I'd like to weed out those who have quit, from those who are still keen.
It would be much appreciated if people could look at the models listed and please comment IF :-
EITHER - you know she is working (has worked in 2008) - this will get her uprated to top of the listings.
OR - you know that she has retired. I can remove her listing. No point in having listing for models no longer working.
I will also accept NO SHOW comments for a limited time. (If a girl gets load of them I'll assume she has quit unless she tells otherwise).
My aims with the upgrade - easier to add and update listings, and smarter searching to make it easier to find stuff. I'm also going to strip out some of the less used features of the old system.

Take a look at the homepage width Paul. Not fitting on a 1024*768 resolution. I'm having to scroll across in IE7.

Err, not sure what my rsolution is but OK here. However, I am wide screen.
Paul, I assume you are using drupal CMS? If so what do you think of it? Do you know if it works with payment systems such as verotel?
Cheers

Yes, Drupal.
I haven't tried any e-commerce with it yet.
That's something I need to explore soon, but sorting out AIR first.
Cheers

The scrolling thing is due to a change in layout, and I'm going to have to get tough with main image dimensions.
I'm using a grid because it comes with better DB functions, whereas before I used a css wrapping approach.
Cheers

Why have you only transferred selected models across ... and not others? (Like me?)

Er, sorry...I may have missed a few - had to do it manually because of a lot of the changes to the DB.
Will do you of course, but, the new site needs portrait style (vertical) pics for the Main Image - can you send me one as all the ones on your listing are landscape format.
I would just ask if it OK to grab a suitable one from your site, but that option isn't available right now!
Cheers

IE 6 on windows server.
If the browser window width is not at least 1152 on my screen then as it gets smaller then more of the profiles are lost from the right hand side. They disapear beyond the visible dimentions of the browser and no scroll bar is shown.
Although the following is obviously a IE bug it will be a problem on some computers... If you shrink the window width to less than the right hand side (where the placement of "BETA" and "LATEST MODELS" starts) then IE locks up.
The main problem is two fold... IE 6's "hickups" rendering some CSS and using CSS to fix widths within multiple DIV's and forget to allow the scroll to be auto if the total outer div width is greater than the browser window.
Bar the above, seems to work ok but as to the other questions... sorry cant help.
