newbie help, tags, look and feel, i'm an idiot, etc. Options

Hi everyone! First of all, thanks for taking the time to even consider helping me.

Ok, so I just recently started using xanga premium, but I didn't really just want to stick with one of the skins they offer.

my xanga is http://www.xanga.com/skin.asp?user=gladandyoung

(I am using one of the user submitted skins, but I wanted to customize it)

but you'll notice that the three links in the top right don't work right...

the script I have for them is:

<TD BGCOLOR="FFFFFF" COLSPAN="1" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top">

<A HREF="http://www.xanga.com/">xanga</A> -

<A HREF="<$Private_Site_Tagline$></A> -

<A HREF="<$Signin_Tagline$></A>
</TD>

I know it's terribly messed up, but could someone tell me what to do to fix it?

Also, when I want to get back to my homepage, like to edit or submit a new post, I have to run around and look for a link (that I usually can't remember) and it takes me back to what my xanga USED to look like.

I want to be able to do everything basically from my front page when I am logged in.

Can anyone suggest anything please?!

Well, that's how Xanga Premium skins from Xanga.com are. The front page is all skinned and the other pages are default. It's like that. However, if you use the skins from createblog.com, you don't have to worry about that. =)
