Header Issues

Hi, Great Template - It allows for some great customization. I am having a few problems with editing the css file and adding new css through the theme options module. I am trying to: 1. Decrease the padding on top and bottom of the logo 2. Clear the header color and remove the shadow around it 3. Remove the shadow around the header right sidebar 4. create space between the main menu and the body The site using the template is www.ProfessorEggheadScienceAcademy.com and an example of our other site I am trying to "mimic" is www.ProfessorEgghead.com. Thank you in advance for you help and support.
