Can anyone PLEASE help me fix my footer in CMPS?

[Bluestrike2]

Hi!

Fresh install at http://www.mlgpwncast.com (we're moving servers and I could not get SSH access to my old one since they're horrid).

Here's my problem - check out the homepage (vBadvanced powered) here. The footer is completely and utterly funky. Would anyone care to lend me a hand at diagnosing it? The forum files have footers that are fine (but there is a gap of about one inch).

Here is the code

<br />
<div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]</div>
<br />

<div align="center" class="smallfont">
  <div>
    <strong>
      <a href="$vboptions[contactuslink]">$vbphrase[contact_us]</a> -
      <a href="$vboptions[homeurl]">$vboptions[hometitle]</a>
      <if condition="$show['admincplink']"> - <a href="$admincpdir/index.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[admin]</a></if>
      <if condition="$show['modcplink']"> - <a href="$modcpdir/index.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[mod]</a></if>

      <if condition="$vboptions[privacyurl]"> - <a href="$vboptions[privacyurl]">$vbphrase[privacy_statement]</a></if>
       - <a href="#top" onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 0); return false;">$vbphrase[top]</a>
      <if condition="$show['member']"> - <a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&amp;logouthash=$bbuserinfo[logouthash]"  onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></if>
    </strong>

I have poked and prodded that template more than it cares to admit. Each time when it didn't work I'd go back to the original and try again. No luck . Thanks!
