Theme development

I am theming a taxonomy page. Includes the usual title/description, and then 4 potential node types are pulled into view. I'd like for each type to appear in a seperate callout box.

I have each of the nodes themed already, and they are passing custom fields in to the main taxonomy page. It is just at the page level, I'm calling $content - and not able to see what node types I'm feeding in.

Hello,

I am looking to extend the standard module, just need a few more fields, and flexinode works just fine.

But I ran into a issue when I needed to override the themes.

Right now, all the tutorials mention that to theme flexinode, I have to go into the specific theme folder, and create a node-flexinode-number.tpl.php file.
So, when I change my theme, I have to recreate this file.

Is there a way to create a "global" flexinode theme file so I don't have to create multiple copies of node-flexinode-1.tpl.php files in every theme in my themes folder?

Hello...

I was wondering if someone could help me - I am new with Drupal and have no experience with css...

I would like to realign the logo image and main links of this website to line up with the middle section of content:

I would also like to make the main links a little bigger.

Can anyone give me some pointers?

Ok:
I am overriding the listing of the forum. I've created my phptemplate_forum_list function in template.php, but i notice that in the actual function there is a global variable '$user' in the original function.

Will phptemplate make this variable available to me? ( by default?)
OR:
Do i need to add it to the argument list in my function?
OR:
Do i need to declare it as a variable in _phptemplate_variables?
