wow.. we really need to clean it up a bit :) You first need to remember that you can't begin with a <body> tag, then a <head> tag, then just put stuff in the middle of nowhere etc :)
You need to code in this order:
<html>
<head>
meta tags here, title here, stylesheets here, and if nessecary some javascript codes
</head>
<body>
your content in here
</body>
</html>
So move ALL <style></style> (with the stuff between them) tags etc between the <head> and </head>. To be honest, it's better to type the above scheme above all coding in your document, and just copy and paste the stuff in the scheme above.
then move all your content between the <body> and </body> tag. Add the background color etc to the <body> tag.
That's to start with :) Your document should always start with <html><head> and with nothing else, that's the two tags that should be on top :)

not really.. you have 3 <head> tags, while you only should have one. Then you have a <body> tag right after the <head> tag, while in the example i gave you, the <body> tag comes only once after the </head> tag
<style> codes are still all over the place. You need to move ALL stylecodes between the <head> and </head>, you shouldn't have any style codes inbetween your content, atleast not within <style></style> tags

are you using some kind of includes (PHP, SSI) or something by any chance?
I started to clean up your page, but there's really no end to it to be honest. You have loads of <html> tags and <head> and </body> and what not tags just in the middle of your content. That's why i ask the question of the includes. Before i go putting effort in something, that doesn't need to be 'one' file at all :)

I started cleaning up your page. It was no use, since it was such a mess i started over again.
this is your index.html page. The space on top is in the image, nothing to do about it unless you open up the image in an editor and cut that piece of it. You can test it yourself, by only typing the image in a notepad file, save it and view it. Then you will see that there's a tin line of pink just at the top of that image.
edit: i typed the code in here, but the forum makes it such a mess, that i think i can better send it to you by mail or MSN. i will send you a PM about it
Love,
