Thank you guys very much for the advice so far. I am not paying for the domain, by the way. I will try finding a nice image for the background and a non-italic font (it seemed nice at first, yet I can see how it can be annoying). I also was not coding by hand at first, since I used Adobe Dreamweaver for the basic layout and CSS, although once I transferred it to my computer I had to start coding by hand, which is why I'm really glad someone noticed that I had an empty <p> tag.
Once again, thank you very much for the advice so far, and I apologize leaving right after making the thread (I had to go to sleep).
EDIT: I apologize for bumping (if modifying a post bumps a thread), although I have done a few things to make it look somewhat nicer, although I still have a few issues here and there. I have also tried inking from my computer, with the current comic being the only one inked so far (just seeing how it looks). I found a few of the superfluous tags and removed them, along with separating the CSS from a few mark-ups. I'm still working on finding a good font family too. Thank you guys very much again for being kind enough to help me out so far....
