1. Check the home.xml you have the position tags in the code. They would look something like this:

<posX>111</posX>
<posY>222</posY>

Some of the items on a page has been added in a central resource file. This is to make it easier to change things. If you change something in references.xml all pages that have that item will be affected.

2. What banners?

3. Edit the topbar.xml and topbarhome.xml (this is for the MP home view).

Ah, there are several bars so that IF you would like to custimize them like in the Metal Media skin you could (every highlighted item on the homepage has it's own bar look).
