I did not see any bracing, did you test fit your door before you final welded your rocker in place? With all of the metal cut out it can move on so you may want to test fit it now make sure everything is still in line. If this is your fist project you are doing great, and you found the right place to read and learn from, the guys on this site have been there and done that. People on this forum are very knowledgeable and will help you through the learning process. Looks like you are having fun and getting it done.

Thanks Jimmy. Yes I am new to this but enjoying. I did test fit the door and the front fender to the outer rocker several times in the process so I think it is very close. There were adjustments needed (slits in the outer rocker to fit over the pillar bottoms. For the drivers side I am cross bracing in order to speed up the process and add a level of comfort (less worry about things moving).
