Hello, i've been having a few problems setting up a new logo on the Marvin_2K theme for the PHP engine, when I was trying to change the logo to one of my own the area just went blank. So I decided to edit the CSS files to use the new logo then all of a sudden all of the placement went KABAM!

You can see what I mean here

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

You really need to allow for more than 3 hours reponse time.

Your left column overlaps the navbar. You need to move it down or something. Here is a topo screenshot with Firefox web developer showing the overlap.

So

Play around with the other web developer options. No one should develop sites without this tool. Here is a link to how to develop printable css style sheets with it. http://www.alistapart.com/articles/printyourway/

I've looked at that and it says the css is valid

I really haven't got a clue what to do now?! =(

I didn't say the css wasn't valid, you have the left column bar OVERLAPPING the navbar. You need to move/change positioning of that left column down Or you need to cut off the top off/resize the column where it over laps your navbar.

http://www.doomedpc.com/drupal-4.5.2//themes/marvin_2k_phptemplate/layou...

#sidebar-left    (line 28)
{
    position: absolute;
    top: 107px;
    right: auto;
    left: 5px;

Change the top value to 140px to test this.
In web developer you can do this live.
go to your site. In toolbar CSS \ Edit CSS switch to layout.css

Change the value 'live' to see what it look like.
(see previously mentioned alistapart tutorial for more info)

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

I tried so many things like that it was unreal, now, one last thing that has occured to me, I need to find a way of getting rid of that second "home" link, i've looked all through the configuration for the themes but cannot think for the life of me how to get rid of it.

Thanks

Update, another thing I have noticed is that in Internet Explorer there is a problem displaying the navbar, it doesn't stretch all the way accross, i've tried a few things all of which haven't worked, the CSS seems valid but I get laods of errors in Dreamweaver saying "____ not IE5.0 compatible". i've tried fixing them but none of them want to work either =(
