Alignment issues…

First off, true confession: I know absolutely nothing about CSS. I’m a plug n’ play guy…

That said, see the attached screen grab.

There are three issues here I need help with, one of which is addressed in another Topic posted here.

1: The title (Enter your title here) is not top-aligned so as to be even with the search field in the opposite sidebar. I have moved it to the absolute top of the content area using the Visual Editor. I see that there is no padding applied. Help!

2: In the Search field, which is simply part of the default sidebar, the color highlight around the magnifying glass icon is…not flush with the edges. I see no way to edit this. Help!

3: (This is addressed in another Topic post) The “Advertisement” widget under the search field currently has a graphic placeholder loaded, but…it won’t display. There are 2 places I’ve found where I can access a “load image” button for this widget. One simply doesn’t work, the other allows me to browse for an image but…nuttin’ honey.

Thanks in advance for your clear step-by-step replies. 🙂
