Default Which templates control which parts of the layout?

I've been searching the forums for a couple of hours now and te thing I can't figure out is which templates control which aspect of the storefront layout?

I'll preface everything by stating I know absolutely no PHP, I know HTML and CSS very well but PHP is completely outside the scope of my abilities.

I'm trying to figure out what, if anything, controls the left side nav in a two column layout.

Here is the site I'm working on http://stage.fiveminuteproductions.com/brainybaby02/home.php

If you click on any of the top nav buttons you can see what the rest of the site is designed to look like and what I'm trying to achieve.

Any help would be much appreciated! Feel free to IM me if you feel adventurous! Basically I think I could do a ton more damage on my own if I could figure out what controlled what!

you should find some info in the manual as to what is used where.

you can also switch on the debug console to get a list of templates used.

Main file to look at is skin1/customer/home.tpl
