By shaving a few pixels off the width of the two right divs, they

FYI, there is a large amount of horizontal scrolling, even in a
1600x1200 maximized window, but it's just empty space over there on the
right. This is caused by improper use of position:relative on #loginbox,
which offsets is normal position by left:635px, pushing it off screen.

Also, the left column is longer than it's container and overlaps the
green footer. Zoom text up a little in Firefox and you'll see this, too.

Looks like you've got some extra <br> in there. If that is an attempt to
make the container big enough to fit all the rounded boxes, it isn't
working. Get rid of them and learn the value of the "clear" property.
Apply it to the footer. See also

I don't know what sort of sizes you envisage for the container, but taking an example of a container that is 200 pixels wide, you've already said that you want one image to be 40 pixels wide and the other to be about 26 pixels or 28 pixels wide. ... Also, when you look at the maximum size of the Labels, which are of necessity centralised horizontally beneath beneath each image, in order for them to be properly centred and also to not overlap the central point of the "approximately middle" space, the Label beneath the large image cannot be wider than 72 pixels and the Label beneath the small image cannot be wider than 60 pixels, severely restricting their usefulness and further reinforcing the waste of valuable "real estate" at the left and right sides of the container. ...
