I usually try and figure these things out on my own but I am about to rip out my hair, I have tried to modify all the CSS's I could to remove the white space between my logo on the top of the webpage and between the menu buttons. The site is ereselling.com and I would love to know how to get rid of all that extra space. Thanks so much for any advice!

You could edit the following css entry that is available in the file personal.css that is available in the directory /templates/beez_20/css. You have to comment the attribute top:5em; or remove it.
Code:
#header ul.menu
{


   /* top:62px; */
   top:5em;
/* was top:5em; */
   padding: 0px 0px 0px 0 ;
   background:#e0e0e0  url(../images/personal/ecke.gif) top left repeat-x ;
   border:0 ;
   text-align:left;
   left:0px;
    display:block;
    margin:0px 10px 0 10px;
    border-top:solid 1px #ddd;

}

Note: Make a copy of the file before editing it.

Thank you so much! I had been playing with everything in that file, I even edited that line a few times as you can see I commented the original value.

Is there another line I need to comment out to push the logo to the top of the page and remove that extra white space? again, thanks for your original help your a lifesaver.

Review the following css entry - you have to reduce the padding (especially the top one which is 0.9em):

h1#logo
{
font-family: 'Titillium Maps', Arial;
padding:0.9em 20px 20px 10px;
/* old padding:0.9em 20px 20px 10px; */
text-transform:uppercase;
font-weight:normal;
margin-top:0;
}

Also, you may have to edit your image file to remove the extra spaces all around or at least on the top.

text-shadow:1px 1px 1px #fff;
-webkit-transition:all .5s ease-out;
-moz-transition:all .5s ease-out;
-o-transition:all .5s ease-out;
transition:all .5s ease-out;}

#header:hover #slogan p {

#slogan p a.button {
background:#584F52;
padding:1px 14px 3px;
margin-left:20px;
