Is CSS a good thing? Does it slow loading times and does it cause compatibility issues on browsers? Can someone clear this one up for me because im just clueless and he's totally obsessed with using CSS on my pages.

Ok, this is rather backwords. CSS = good! HTML needs CSS, or otherwise you run the risk of code bloating (thus slower site), blah, blah. CSS streamlines the update process, and 100% CSS design - thats impressive!
The above languages arnt bullshit, static html is bullshit (dinosaur old), and if you paid more than a few dollars - your request would be a rip off and self imposed at that.
sites, real sites are not built out of HTML, its a markup language - its a pretty cover to what most often ends up a shitty book.
Use the CSS (prop mixed with HTML), and tip him for helping you! If he did it all in CSS, he needs to be given a holiday bonus. He did you right and saved you from yourself.
