It's not my place, but I have to say that I think the response to Mil Imon that's best for Drupal
would not be ones that makes him strongly dislike, collectively, the
many great people who offer advice on the Drupal support list.
>From the limited information we have, it would appear that the main
problems are due to a bad theme. So the advice may have to be to scrap the theme, find a solid theme at
http://drupal.org/project/Themes
and change to make it look like the one you have, and override themeing
functions for particular modules only as necessary. Nick Lewis
has a good tutorial on theming: http://www.nicklewis.org/node/850
But the response I think would be best for Drupal, and Mr. Imon, is for
someone to e-mail "hey, I know something about Drupal theming, will you
pay me to help out."
If we don't have people hungry enough to make offers on tough jobs (and
smart enough to lurk on the support list), that's going to hurt
Drupal. I'm not walking the walk, because too much is happening right now that has to settle down for Agaric Design
to offer to help.
There's a site I'm not familiar with except to know it exists called
http://www.drupalancers.com/ should Mr. Imon decide that quickly hiring
someone for Drupal theming is the best course.
