You're using the default skin, I guess?  If so, have you considered

Yes, all default right now.

I've browsed the skins a while back and didn't remember seeing any  
like that, but I'll check again.


In any case, yes, search, navigation links, login/out, things like  
that can go there. Depending on the nature of your site, you could  
eliminate the sidebar altogether, and have all the links that you'd  
want to have always available up there.

Or have the sidebar extend all the way to the top of the page, so the  
site header is alongside it instead of across above it, and have this  
image at the top of the sidebar.  This way the site header doesn't  
have to be as high as the image.
These solutions sound interesting. Do they involve using other skins  
or are there parameters I can set within the default skin?

Thanks, Brian
