Layer in a Table?

Dear Community,
I have a question that I hope is simple to you.

I am creating a website for a friend, he wanted something really simple so this is what I did for him:
As you can see it's very basic. My friend asked me to change the center picure on index.html so that when the bottom left boat is clicked, it opens up a window with the website of that particular vessel, and same for the bottom right. I went ahead and split the four pics with Photoshop, created four layers and aligned them in the middle of the page, so now they are considered separate objects and I can link the bottom two to their respective urls. Now my question is as follows: Most of index.html is made with Tables, and obviously the four new layers in the middle will not be auto-centered like the tables, so now the middle pic will load all over the screen according to the visitor's resolution. Is there any way I can group all the layers and 'dump' them into a Table that I can center to the page? Please note that the index currently hosted is the old one. The modified one is stored locally, I haven't uploaded it for obvious reasons.

Thanks in advance for the help!!!

I don't know about centering within a table, but you could certainly make the layers sit in the same place and be the same size.
You could always use an iframe if you can't get layers to work, or try building the site using CSS- being such a simple design it shouldn't be hard to swap out of the table structure.

Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..
