You have not provided an example, an url on this. So, it's kinda
difficult to understand, to guess what you mean, to guess what your code
actually is, what you expect and what you get.
What kind of visual effect would you actually expect to see with margin
applied to a table cell? A margin applied to a table cell makes no sense
in my mind. Border-spacing as a CSS2 table property or cellspacing as an
HTML 4.01 attribute is different.

Your code is not entirely consequent. You have <table width="200%", then
<td width="220" and then an <img width="219"
You can just drop width constraints because they are unneeded here.
</td>[color=blue]

..cloudandangles is not defined in the code you provided here.
background attribute is not defined anywhere in HTML 4.01. I assumed uou
probably meant to use
style="background-image: url('images/cloudsandangles.gif');
Finally, your table cell is empty: no text node.
[color=blue]
> </tr>
> <tr>
> <td colspan="2" bgcolor="#1573FF"[/color]
bgcolor is deprecated.
[color=blue]
> background="../Site/images/bargrad.gif"></td>[/color]
background is invalid markup code.
[color=blue]
> </tr>[/color]
Better is
style="background: #1573FF url('../Site/images/bargrad.gif');"
Again, you have an empty cell; so you should not see the background
image nor color since the text node is empty.
