i have a site that I just started, im still in VERY early stages... Basically Im just designing my images right now. here is my site:

http://scotty-golf.com

Here is the theme I started with:

http://demo.magentocommerce.com/?___store=modern_theme2


Here is my question... at the top left where the logo is, there is another logo directly to the right of it. Its called side_logo_promo.gif.

1. i do not want that image on my site, nor do I want to just replace it with another created image. I want nothing there. When I delete it from my FTP, there is not a broken link thing there... I cannot figure out how to get rid of that in my code. When I go to my admin area under manage pages, home page... there is nothing in all that code about that image file... but when I go to that page in my web browser and view source code, I see the line in there.. How can I get rid of that image?

2. if you notice, my scotty-golf logo is taller than the original magento logo. When I replaced it, it shifted up my drop down menu to the top of the page... How can I bring it back down? Any ideas?

Magento has built-in caching - If you log into the admin and go to System > Cache Management and then under All Cache and select Refresh and then save cache settings, it should do the trick.

I have no idea about #1.

#2 is easier to fix. Go into skin/frontend/default/modern/css/menu.css and look for...

Code:
#nav { float:left; margin-top:15px; margin-left:15px; font-size:1.1em; }
Change "margin-top" to a higher number, like 40 or 50, to bring the menu down farther.

well guys, thanks for the advice, but the refresh cache did nothing to the drop down menu or my logo...

however, changing that margin did work great.... what about dropping my logo down a little? where would I do that?

Its crude but you could just upload a single blank pixel as side_logo_promo.gif. It would be better just to look through the php files and delete the references to it. Have you got a file called something like header.php. Look in there and see if you can find it then comment it out.

Another alternative is to go into the boxes.css file and change...
Code:
.side-logo-promo        { float:left; margin:15px 10px 0 10px; }
to...
Code:
.side-logo-promo        { visibility: hidden;}
