    Hi
    Ive been working on modifying this AWESOME theme ( Thank you Caroline Moore!) and I have run into a snag
    I want to place a navigational bar in a specific area but I cant seem to add it correctly. The site is temporarily at https://www.origami-owl.com so you can see what my issue is. The nav bar is in the right spot but it will not properly align no matter what I do. I made it as a 775×50 img sliced up to fit correctly but the coding will not allow it to stay there. Is there any way you can look at it and let me know what Im doing wrong?
    Thank you!
    Vikki ( PS Caroline- Thanks for answering me on Twitter! )

    Hi! Buttercream adds padding to all table cells by default (td tags), which is causing the extra space.

    Ideally you would use divs instead of tables for layout like this, but adding style="padding: 0;" to each td tag should take care of it.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi again Caroline
    Thanks for the advice. It JUST about fixed the problem and now there are little white lines between some of the buttons. Is there any way to get rid of those or something? Can you take another quick look? Im so sorry to bother you but this blog is going to work so well for me. Thank you for developing it and thanks in advance!

    I saw that earlier, and it looks like you need to adjust the widths on the td tags slightly, they’re off by a pixel here or there.

    Everything is lined up properly for me now!

    The three columns underneath the content are widget areas, which you can configure by going to Appearance -> Widgets in your Dashboard.
