Spruced the Place Up a Bit

If you have any experience customizing templates, I:
  • Can't get the contact or about me pages to work. Also, I hate their colour.
  • I can't figure out how to get my little dashboard menu in the corner.
  • I wouldn't mind changing the background colour to something a little bit less beige!

Help??

(also, sorry for all the pop ups in Google Reader, I was mucking with labels)
