Why won't frontpage display my WSS sites the way I want it to?

[Guest]

I have some frontpage and sharepoint design questions.

I'd like to create the simple structure listed at the bottom of my question
but I'm not sure how to get all the layouts the way I want them to be. I've
created a simple site definition that has an altered layout and images but
that doesn't seem to get applied to the regular sharepoint pages within a
particluar section, like a site's document or picture libraries. These
sharepoint pages don't carry the definition over from their root nor will it
let me apply the definition to these pages.

What is the best way for me to do what I'm asking? I want some sort of
template/site definition that I can apply to every subpage/subsite.

Also, why is it that when I resixe certain cells the whole page gets messed
up? How do I make cells that won't change and how do I make cells that I can
tag to the right ede of the screen so they stay at the right edge when I
resize the browser? Some of the cells won't grow or shrink and some seem to
affect the whole page size even though they may be just a simple cell in the
middle of the page. This is driving me crazy. Why is Frontpage this
user-unfriendly. By the way, I'm trying to do all the design in Frontpage
2003 to WSS sites hosted on an SBS 2003 premium box.

Here's a brief comparison between ie and firefox
In Firefox:
backgroud images are a bit off center
links on left menu are underlined
wordart "sudbury canoe club" title is pixelated (but I can convert that to a
jpg if no other solution"

In IE and Firefox:
Search field cells, "up to <root>" link, and "modify shared page/sign in
button" won't stick to right edge of screen (meaning I want them to stay
glued to the right edge even if I increase the browser window size. right
now I'm in 1280x800)
Subpages like Shared documents and documents and lists aren't using the same
template the main page is using. How do I make all pages underneath a site
use the same template?

And here's an example so you can see what I mean
