 * I’ve been slaving over the template, trying to get it to behave just the way 
   I want it. However in IE there’s a slight padding/margin at the top which I do
   not want. FF looks like it’s supposed to and both code and css validates.
 * This is a mod of Kubrick in WP 1.5
 * Anyone of you who want to take a look with a fresh set of eyes?

 * did you try setting the padding and margin to 0px in the body tags or the css?

 * add the line
    `margin: 0;` to the `BODY` section of your CSS and see if that 
   clears it up 🙂

 * Neither of those worked, but I got the gap removed by changing one small setting
   in header.php
 * Instead of no-repeat bottom center; it was no-repeat top center;
 * Thanks for looking into it for me 🙂
