Two quick questions:
I was successful in adding the navbar, however two questions:
1. How do I get the navbar below my header.
2. How do I get the slideshow to show bigger pictures against an all black background?
Thanks!!

Welcome to Dgrin :wave
Remove the nav html for the head tag box and put this below in your header
customize box. You're also missing the nav closing div. Things appear on the
page in the order they are in the html.
<div id="my_banner"> </div>
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/6136020_hwTxT">About Me</a></li>
<li><a href="/galleries">Galleries</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/6136023_G9DvB">Information</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/6136030_pZtSn">Guestbook</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
It also changes the links to relative so however you enter your site domain or nickname will stick.

Oops,, forgot this one.:D
In your bio show code change the width to 720 to maximize the width in the
biobox. Any wider, you'd have to increase the parent containers widths also
which can be done so holler back if you want it even bigger.
SM.flash.insertSlideshow(720, 600, ssConfig, 'transparent');
Add this to CSS to remove biobox border and background.
#bioBox .boxBottom {
background: none;
border: none !important;
}

Allen,
Thanks very much for all of your help. The gallery slideshow worked like a charm. However, for question #1 moving the navbar down below my header, when I move the code as you instructed, I lose the navbar completely. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions? Thanks again!

You nav html is currently in the "head tag" box on the customize page. Delete
it from there and put this in your header box, not header javascript
or head tag.
code for header box.
<div id="my_banner"> </div>
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.gwhizphotography.com/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.gwhizphotography.com/gallery/6136020_hwTxT">About Me</a></li>
<li><a href="/galleries">Galleries</a></li>

<li><a href="http://www.gwhizphotography.com/gallery/6136030_pZtSn">Guestbook</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
