Settings for text on home page

Hi guys, I ran some searches and didn't find much so here's a question or two. On my home page I want to move my text/photo up and to the left so as to better use the space on the pages and not have huge margins of blank white space. I also want to change the font spacing so that my home page verbage has more space between each line. I've read a css spacing tutorial but I'm still not sure what to do. The text just seems jumbled to me and I want it to be easier to read. If you have any idea how to make these adjustments please point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Where did you do what you have??

If in the admin > toold > defines page editor > main_page.php

The drop the tables and use the html editor - WYSIWIG like

You have used an inline style to align that text to "justified" as the existing style calls for it to be left, not justified. This text needs no additional help to be aligned left... you actually changed it from left.

See here

<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" height="19" align="left" valign="top" width="282">

Get an editor for your code and use ZC's text function, the editor makes depreciated and terrible code.

Then you can hit the stylesheet to attack the line height to make it clearer if you still need.
