I've been chasing my tail on this problem for several days now.

I created a module that has two parts to it.  Not the standard read only view mode and edit content mode.  My modules View mode displays a group of site users in a family tree type view.  When you click on a users name, it takes you to the Edit mode of the module and allows a non-Admin to change certain parts of his record.  When done, you're broght back to the family tree in the View mode.

It works great on version 4.03.  But on 4.05, the guys at DNN decided to change the Edit mode skin (which is the Admin skin from what I gather) to reside in the Content Pane and not span the Left and Right panes so that my Edit form is now constrained to 70% (aprox) of the page.

The problem is is that my form on the Edit mode is using a image of a manilla file folder as the background of table that my web controls sit on top of.  With the Edit mode now being 70% of the page, my background image is cropped and all my web controls are misaligned because of that.  End result is that the Edit page looks like crap.

If someone could help me by pointing out how I could:
A.  Make the Content pane in the Edit mode span all three panes.
or
B.  Move the Edit mode control to the top pane instead of the content pane.

I'd greatly appreciate it.  I've got two seperate threads started on the DNN support forums and to date, I haven't had a single response.  I'd even settle for a solution on how to dynamically create a link to a different module, passing the UserID to the View mode of that page, I'd move my Edit form to a new modules View form.
