You said it right. You are trying to create a new website (Which Google is going to screen it throughly ), then you are trying to hide some text.

I would HIGHLY recommend you should submit the sitemaps again and place a reinclusion request.

btw: is your website found by site:www.domainname.com?

As far as a sitemap I have a google site map (am looking for a decent ROR sitemap generator) I also link to my homepage from every page.

I do have a theory and if someone could take a look at this I would really appreciate it. In my header I have an H1 tag around the first text on the page, and its just about the first thing that shows up in the code. At the top of the header div I have a black picture background and at the bottom I have set the background to just be white. The text in the H1 is black and would show up against that black background, but I have added margins to the H1 to move it down.

Could the search engines inability to read the css margins on my H1 cause them to think I'm hiding black text against a black picture in an H1 tag right at the top of my page? Can google even tell the picture is black?

I would really appreciate any feedback on this.
