Any help for my problems would be appreciated!
I am trying to get dropdown menus for the tool bar at the top of my screen so I can have it say: photo galleries (with a dropdown menu of dogs, ducks, geese, ect...
I am also trying to get it so that the slideshow that runs on my homepage takes up most of the screen.
The last problem that I have been having is trying to make a page that has mostly text (about me and my companies mission) and a page that can have a place to generate emails to me for information or questions about the web site.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for any help! I don't mess with drop-down menus myself, but you can find out about a stretchy slideshow that sizes itself to the browser window size on your homepage here with customization #20 (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=135068).

Those that could help would need a link to your site.
I can help with the drop nav.

See if you like this. You'll have to go into Easy Customizer and remove your current nav.
Add this to your header on the "advanced site-wide customization" page in your control panel.
<div class="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a class="drop" href="#Link">Galleries
<!--[if gte IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul>
<li><a href="/Other/Hunting-Dogs/10924724_WXgbH">Hunting Dogs</a></li>
<li><a href="/Other/Ducks/10953465_Eakic">Ducks</a></li>
<li><a href="/Other/Canada-Geese/10937387_Xx9ZP">Canada Geese</a></li>
<li><a href="/Other/Snow-Geese/10925212_nTjr4">Snow Geese</a></li>
<li><a href="/Other/Waterfowl-Hunting/10937449_SKtpY">Waterfowl Hunting</a></li>

Thanks for the help Allen, that is exactly what I needed!
Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of the photo gallery associated with the "Info" page and how to insert text boxes in it and how to get contact info and email request info up on the "contact" page.
Thanks for the help!

Here's some options for your info and contact pages
Create new gallery in journal (old) style, upload a photo and use the caption for you info.

Under "Tools" > "gallery settings" there is a dropdown to set gallery style. Setting style
will also remove the style picker from the gallery.
