This is sorta the first time i'm making a skin. I'm trying to move the blog around. But there is a bunch of empty space above the blog. Here, its kinda hard to explain. http://www.xanga.com/MtestM

no that doesn't work, look at my xanga again. it just puts it in a smaller text box thing. you still have to scroll a lot to get to the blog.

i recommend editing this part and playing around with it

<div style="overflow: auto; width: 600px; height: 100px; margin-top: 300px; margin-left: 25px;">

<div style="overflow: auto; width: 200px; height: 500px; margin-top: 50px; margin-left: -780px;"<p align=left>

ya i've been playin with it, but it seems to move the blog and the blank space. i want to get rid of the empty space above the blog.

also that part of the code u told me to mess with, it makes my left colum thing go away.

i think you add </div> to the edn of the <div codes

<div style="overflow: auto; width: 600px; height: 100px; margin-top: 300px; margin-left: 25px;"> </div>

<div style="overflow: auto; width: 200px; height: 500px; margin-top: 50px; margin-left: -780px;"<p align=left> </div>

like that
