How Do I Add A Slogan to Goofy Theme which doesnt support it?

HI All.

I am using the Goofy Theme and would like to use a slogan or at least place something such as text or an image to the upper right side on the top banner (opposite side of my logo.)

My site is here for reference: http://www.rockymountainwebs.com/acu.

Thanks for any help you can give!

How Do I reduce top margin on created blocks?

Hi All.

I am using the Goofy Template and am getting a large margin between the top of the block and the beginning of my content in that block.

The other "built-in" blocks like the event calendar and RSS feeds don't have this issue.

What am I doing wrong?

The source code doesn't show anything visible to indicate a break or other tag that is pushing my content down.

Thanks for your help!

How do I select a theme/template engine

Dear Drupal Community, (I'll try to keep this as short as possible, sorry if I'm unable to!)

About 2 weeks back I decided to go with Drupal to build an interactive e-journal+website for a community of researchers and practioners. Found a hosting firm, Installation and download went alright, I did it rather carefully and its up and running now. I've checked in the first few pages, used both bluemarine and pushbutton (Xtemplate engine) and they seem to work ok. I'm quite excited to use Drupal because in my comparison with other CMSes it met most of my criteria cleanly. The fun begins now.

What I can't clearly tell is which theme engine should I use for my needs, because by and large they
all seem to fit the bill, but with some differences.

My requirements are: 1. I will likely need a horziontal navbar (just plain html blocks/cells colored and bordered) on top for things like Home, About us, Contact, Organisational stuff. 2. I will need a left hand side navbar for topic and subtopic based navigation of stories and reports, again simple colored bordered cells with links, no frills. 3. Spaces on top left and/or top right for logo, slogan, etc. 4. A clean footer space for logo, links etc. 5. Main body contained within all this must be customisable for content as well as blurbs in boxes, boxed on the right. 6. I'd like complete control of colors, borders (for anything) 7. Also, I'd like control of white space proportioning between blocks or elements 8. speed of rendering is key for me, don't want the choice of templating to slow down stuff.

book block

I’be just added a book with some content and tried enabling the block but it doesn’t appear …..

Seems strange is there anything else that needs to be set…. By the way what should the book block look like will it display prev next links

I’m looking for some means of displaying a small amount of content using the prev next links in a block….

I’ll have a go at writing some code later to see if it works
