OK, not to worry. I've discovered how to put the drop down menu inside the navbar.
It was important to me because I had used up quite a bit of space with the header, navbar, drop down menu and Google ads before you even get to the forum.
I've pasted a screen shot for anyone interested in placing their drop down menu inside the navbar.
And here how to do it... really simple!
Edit navbar in your template and do a search for
PHP Code:
<td class="alt1" width="100%">
Directly beneath that line paste your drop down menu.
