Default Layout Change Help

I want to shorten my layout by adding another column on the left side of my website. Is there anyway I can move the right column to the left and create a new right column which I can add more link/info boxes to? I remember I tried doing this when I first started the site and really messed things up.

Also, does anyone know how I can edit the horizontal bar? It's really messed up right now..I would rather have customer service and info links up there if that's possible at all..

Here is my website edited from 'Artistic Tunes - Water Colour' skin:
www.babylovespink.com

Any help would be appreciated!

Firstly, make sure you backou and files you change!!

Ok you will need to look in home.tpl and see if your left bar is commented out, or if it's just missing.

If it commented out just uncomment the left-bar. If you don't have a left bar at all you will need to add it.

Just copy the right bar then change the id to left bar.

then find
#center-main {
margin:0 250px 0 25px;


}

and change it to
#center-main {
margin:0 250px 0 250px;


}




you may need to adjust the left bar styles.

Hmm..I just changed my width from 950->1024.
I tried changing the

<div id="right-bar"> to <div id="left-bar">

in /home.tpl and changed the margin size.
I'm still not sure how to add a new column : /

Also, how do I change the flyout menu to flyout the right side instead of left?

The 'Bestseller' and 'Featured Products' image is missing in ie ..

Welcome to the MS nightmare. There is a separate IE css file, you may need to edit it as well

*stress*
none of the files I changed had an IE version. Seems like xcart just auto changed everything on its own. The title images all disappeared.. Is this supposed to be fixable on my part?
