Hi, Tim,

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the site is confidential, so I
can't give a URL. (plus, there are other CSS issues which might
distract people from the problem at hand).

Seriously, it's been a few years since I've edited a CSS file. (I'm
actually looking forward to it). Everything sounds vaguely familiar
though; I'm at the stage where I just need a few terms to be able to
google....

You probably want to use absolute positioning. This will take the
image outside of the document flow and there won't need to be a hole
where the image would have been before moving it. This would be the
case with negative margins or relative positioning.

Remember that an absolutely positioned element is positioned in
relation to its nearest positioned ancestor. That is to say an
ancestor with position: absolute or position: relative. If there are
no positioned ancestors it is positioned in relation to the body.

It will be easier to help if you show us your code and show us what
you want it to look like.
