Hello all. I've got a confusing problem. In my photoblog: http://www.worldofjuice.org my "about" page as well as my "archives" page shows up as simply a black screen. It is only true for these two pages and this problem is not a result of me changing my templates or stylesheet. One day, my pages worked fine, and now they are simply black. I tried everything I could think of, and I will give you the template for my about page, assuming that having learned how to fix that, I will be able to do the same for my archives page.

Thanks for any help. I really have no idea what the problem is...

I am Juice. If that's a little awkward...you can call me Justin. Justin Kingsford Smith to be exact. I'm an 18 year old Temple University freshman from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
</p>
<p>
My lust for photography started in High School when I took a basic black and white photography course. Soon after, and made possible by the gift of a Nikon F401 from my uncle, I ventured into the world of color photography. I wasn't satisfied for long, however, and after finding the online world of photoblogging, I invested in a digital SLR, a Nikon D70. Since then I've had a blast with photography and am now studying it at Temple University. Although my excitment for photography is not always consistent, and I will sometimes subject this photoblog to long breaks, I hope to stay committed to photography throughout the rest of my life. Whether photography remains a hobby, or will develop into my career, only time can tell. For now, I hope to use this photoblog to inspire other photographers as well as improve and expand my own photographic abilities through the assistance of <b>your</b> constructive criticism. So sit back and enjoy. Let me know what you think, how I'm doing, how I can improve...the works. And if by some chance I've inspired you as a photographer, or simply as a viewer, I'd be flattered to hear about it :)

Remove <MTEntries> and </MTEntries> and things should be better. smile.gif On plain content pages you don't need to use MT tags.
