image map and DIV Options

[Smarmosaur]

there are about 20 (extremely rough guess) pixels of blank space between the top of the scrollbox-for my comments-and the first comment. I think it's there because of the removal of my friends space and everything in the comments except the name of the user who posted it, the comment itself, and the add comment button at the bottom. it's interfering with part of my image map, and when I repeat that part in a new div, I can't move it to the right spot because the top blank part of the scrollbox is in the way (yes, i'm using z-index). to make it a little more clear, I hid the scrollbar, using overflow:hidden, instead of auto, and lined up the contents (not the entire scrollbox itself) with my main DIV.
