    I took a quick look.
    This is a temp fix, but don't know if it is right.

    stylesheet.css

    Find:
    body { margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 62.5%; }

    replace
    margin with:
    margin-top: -25em;

    Just guessing play with the - with different numbers.

    Code:
    #container { width: 100%; margin:-133px 0 0 0; padding: 0; }
    this is in the layout.css this should clear the white space, you may need to play with the -133px to get it exact. I would consider contacting the company you got the template from cause this shouldn't be happening

    ^ Sorry, that sure won't work in your case. The "whitespace" above your logo is actually remnants of the navigation bar which usually is home to "Home Log In" etc. It has handy things like "Log Out" and "Cart" links. I don't really get how potential customers can log in and the like. I can't see diddly on that bar, even using "Select All" on my browser. I'm thinking that the guts were hacked out of the header file. At any rate, Firefox shows a bit of it.. so, it's probably due to a coding error.

    Yeah, both stylesheets are redundant as a pair. I've just used Winmerge on your two stylesheets and they are exact, asides from nine corresponding changes. One must have been a test stylesheet or something. If I were you, I'd just remove one of them at a time and note any subtle changes. If you remove one and you like what you see, then that's the ticket to freedom.
