    I noticed all the new templates start out this way.

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <!-- Website template by freewebsitetemplates.com -->
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
    <title>Her Designs</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" type="text/css" />
    <!--[if IE 6]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/ie6.css" type="text/css" />
    <![endif]-->
    <!--[if IE 7]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/ie7.css" type="text/css" />
    <![endif]-->
    </head>

    If I understand the new HTML5 standards and IE, the second line due to the comment command
    <!-- Website template by freewebsitetemplates.com -->
    will break IE and it will display in the Quirks mode which I believe is IE 7.5 therefore you have no need for the so called fix
    <!--[if IE 6]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/ie6.css" type="text/css" />
    <![endif]-->
    <!--[if IE 7]>
