I’m also wondering how to center the header because I can’t quite get it right, but what you want to play with are these selectors for the bg/mouseover colors:

To change the mouseover background color:

.main-navigation a:hover,
.main-navigation ul li.current-menu-item a,
.main-navigation ul li.current_page_ancestor a,
.main-navigation ul li.current-menu-ancestor a,
.main-navigation ul li.current_page_item a,
.main-navigation ul li:hover > a {
	color: #YOUR FEATURE COLOR;
	background-color:#COLOR OF YOUR CHOOSING;
}

You’ll probably want to adjust the padding and margins on the bar itself to make those colors span the height:

.main-navigation {
	padding-top: 0;
	padding-bottom: 0;
}

I adjusted the height of the links to make the padding even up. You might want to play around with the height and padding numbers in this section.

.main-navigation a {
	color: #444444;
	display: block;
	float: left;
	padding: 16px 16px 16px;
	height: 20px;
}

There could be an easier way to do this for sure, but what’s hardcoded into the css where i’m showing “feature color” is the default green color. The feature color you select in the theme options is going to override this and I’m not 100% how to override that in the css, so I just selected the feature color I wanted. You could try adding an !important to those lines maybe?

+1 for an answer. I believe that the recent update to Thematic has something to do with it, as my Pro version showed the patchwork quilt effect until yesterday after I updated thematic. Can someone familiar with the workings of the base theme provide some insight as to what may have changed? Honestly that was the EXACT look I wanted on my homepage and the #1 reaosn I went with Autofocus+ above all the other similar themes that had uniform layouts.

I’m bumping this rather than making a new post because I’m having the same problem.

I understand that I need to update the media files in my posts, but where is the getfile link generated?

Also, is there any other option than updating every media file? I’ve turned off the file locking and I want to make sure I don’t tear something up simply deleting the htaccess file (that doesn’t sound like the right thing to do)

You could always just do a JQuery accordion/toggle. There’s an example here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/exactly-how-to-create-a-custom-jquery-accordion/

Search for “accordion menus” I don’t know whether there is a plugin, but I am using a script from here: Stefan Born – Accordion Menu

The menu is a regular definition list. The entire list is wrapped in an “accordion” div class and organized normally. All you do is link the accordion.js and accordion.css files in your header, and style the accordion.css to your liking. You can have as many different accordion lists as you want, just wrap in another “accordion” classed div.

The only snaggle I have is that I need to modify the code to not expand the first menu item by default when the page loads. Haven’t gotten around to that yet.

wow, i think i’ll give this a try. i’d love to get zencart working with this.
