Sometimes when my website loads there is a large gap at the top of the header image. other times it is not there. i cant seem to figure out why this is happening. it mostly happens in FireFox but i have seen it in chrome as well.

What do you have defined for the image in
/includes/languages/english/andover_modern/header.php

Your image size is 1,100px × 235px

Edit a copy of tpl_header.php for your template and remove or comment out the clear both after the logo wrapper definition

<div id="logoWrapper">
    <div id="logo"><a href="http://notoriousarc.com/"><img src="includes/templates/andover_modern/images/logo.jpg"     <div id="tagline"></div>

</div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

did that and it didnt fix the problem, it just removed my image from my top menu area

Either you or the template has moved the header items outside of the mainWrapper...
If you, why did you do this?
If the 3rd party template, try posting in the support thread for it

here is the code:

This is a template re-code issue - see my earlier post
