Customizing look of CMS homepage...

Couple things. I am trying to figure out if my avatar is suppose to show up in the Article preview? And I am seeing problems with the username menu drop down (not being able to highlight the options in the drop down... only every once in a while am I able to get the highlight to work).

I have edited the section page template, but have not made any edits to the article preview or article page templates... I even reverted the section page template to the original and still no avatar and weird username drop down mene issue.

Do any of you know how I can get the avatar to show up and maybe disable the drop down menu altogether?

Also, if I give a usergroup blog permissions, will the blogs post to the section area or is that not possible?

I do apologize for all the questions.. I am just having a really hard time understanding the CMS functionality. I appreciate any assistance you could provide.
