Header formatting

I saw this website build with PageLines DMS:

http://lupusla.org/

I want to have a header that's VERY similar. However, with the fixed area, I'm struggling with how to do that. 

I want to have a "super menu" under one of the tabs, and drop downs for others, a larger logo to the left like this, a search all the way to the right, and a call-to-action at the top like we see with "Donate" (I want "Request a Quote").

What area (fixed or header) is best to use for this, and, within that area, what are the best sections to place?

Thanks.

Hi,

If you want to have the menu and cta visible at all times then the fixed header is the way to go. As for the site you supplied it was done pretty easy see the picture.

 They used a navi section which has a place to add your logo and still have menu in the same section. And used a textbox with some html for the button and used css to style it.

If you dont have some knowledge of html or css then it could be a little difficult.

Thanks, Aires. So, they just added a text box in the "Fixed" area above the Navi section?

Then they used the Customize section in DMS to simply push the nav down with a top margin of 70px? 

If I wanted the .navright to sit at the base instead of the top, can I just go "vertical-align: baseline;" for that section, or do I need to push it down with that top margin? Here's the site I'm working on:

I don't like that the nav is up at the top when I scaled the logo to be bigger than the default.

I was going to use the top black line I have on that site to have some links to the shopping cart, account, and a request for quote call-to-action.

Thanks for you help!
