MemberIf you post a link to your site someone might be able to help you out with it. also a complete description of where you want the logo and how you want it to look.
The best tip I can offer I is to get Firebug and spend a little time learning to use it. It's been a big help for me.

MemberHi,
The current theme/layout looks great.Last time I looked at it and commented there was a yellow background and it looked totally different.
It really looks good in FireFox now. Great job!

MemberHi,
Have you looked at your site in FireFox? It looks totally different to me than in IE.
I know it's maddening to make a site look perfect in all browsers, but I've taken the painstaking time to make sure my site looks good in all 3 major browsers as well as on an iPad, both in portrait and landscape.
The reason I mention this is because I use FireFox almost exclusively and the site doesn't look anything like it does in IE. When I saw what it looked like in FF I had to open IE and it looks great in that browser.
I'm certainly no expert and won't be the one to ask coding questions. Just thought I would throw it out there. Having spent a week working on and tweaking 2 Genesis sites I have a strange affinity to this forum having spent many hours digging for tips and tricks, and know what many are dealing with to get their sites just right.
Best to you!

MemberNever mind on that widget issue. I tinkered around with the margins and widths and got them to line up ok in "skinny screen" even though they aren't aligned perfectly in normal widths.
Thanks again!

MemberThank you very much for the comment Susan. I agree. I am really starting to like the look of the newer version better.
I've added the logo and made a couple other tweaks.I notice you are very helpful in these forums and I'm certain everyone really appreciates it. It's very nice of you to donate your time helping others with all these different issues.
I only have one minor issue I'm still grappling with, the footer widget area. I have three footer widgets and you might notice the spacing between 2 and 3 is wider than 1 and 2. This is causing the footer to not display properly on my iPad in landscape.
If you have any ideas on that, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers!

MemberHi,
I customized my footer by simply adding this to the functions.php file[CSS]
add_filter('genesis_footer_creds_text', 'custom_footer_creds_text');
function custom_footer_creds_text() {
echo "";
echo "Copyright © ", date("Y"), " YOURNAME.";
echo "";
}
[/CSS]I didn't need to do all that stuff you have above, just pasted that code in and it's good.
hope this show up ok, my first time answering a question

MemberHi,
Thank you so much again for your help. Yes, I am still using the older version because I'm afraid to upgrade since the site looks exactly how I want it to look and upgrading could potentially create new problems or send me back to the drawing board to get it back to how it looks right now.I'll try your suggestion later and mark it resolved if it works.
Cheers!

MemberPS. sorry I pasted in the code you suggested for the button and as you see it created just a link, just like it did on my site

MemberHi,
Thanks so much for the reply, but unfortunately when I use Member LoginAll that shows up is a link "Members Login" and there's no button. I would assume the button itself would have properties as far as the size, color, mouseover color, etc. but that code doesn't produce a button, only a link. I tried it both in a side widget and in an actual page.
Maybe I'm missing something...
