divs, modules, and other, div layers? colors? Options

*grumbles* does xanga just have to do everything within the header?

so my question to all you xanga skin gurus out there is.....is there a way to move the module side (the thinner....thing) without moving the posts.

for example. could this image possibly be turned into a xanga layout. or do i have to move everything together? (like....move the bigger blue box down to where the smaller one is)

and uh....does everything have to be colored? can the tables for the modules and posts have transparent backgrounds? xanga is turning everything i know about html on its head. too much css crap. @_@;

thanks! uh....are you sure this works? i can't seem to recreate the modules. they just don't show up. and the closing tag for the first div doesn't seem to work. so all the posts/blog get stuck in a module-sized bar on the left.

no wonder i haven't seen any xangas that look like this. this is soooo making me crazy. i give up! but thank you for all your wonderful help. i've taken to using a.... simple...single div layer. no more thinking...it's not even my xanga!

here's the final result. i hope he doesn't mind me sharing. thank you sooooooooo incredibly much.

ETA: OMB and while my brain was frying i checked out your vectors! stellar! :)
