It all works fine but it looks a bit out of place.

You can add your custom CSS in the front end CSS file of HikaShop in the Display tab of the configuration.

I have found the frontend file and the edit button (drum roll please) but I can't find anything that looks like "additional information" or the name of the custom field "organizer" to change. The dive looks like this: <div id="hikashop_checkout_additional_info" class="hikashop_checkout_additional_info"> <fieldset class="input"> <legend>Additional information</legend> <table class="hikashop_contentpane" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tbody> <tr id="hikashop_order_organizername" class="hikashop_checkout_organizername_line"> <td class="key"> <td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </fieldset> </div> but when I highlight it (in firebug) it shows it in the file template_css What I really want to do is move it to the TOP of the page (above the Shipping Method radio buttons) and spruce it up a bit..

Ok, one last Q (don't hold me to this please): Ok so what if I wanted to put that dropdown box (custom field) in front of the products themselves.. the products aren't really in the checkout workflow?! And how do I put portions of the flow up on a new page rather than one long one? Kind of break it up between products <newpage> register/login <new/page> shipping methods/payment. Thanks!

Click on it to add a step and drag n drop the views from one step to another to move them around on separate pages. You can't put the fields in front of the products themselves. If you want to attach the fields on the products and not on the order, you should not create custom fields of the table "order" but custom fields of the table "item". They would then display on the product page before the add to cart button.
