Getting rid of the logo on your MediaWiki

I recently installed MediaWiki 1.7.1 on my web server. But I wanted to get rid of the logo on the top left hand side of the layout. The logo took up space and is really unnecessary. I rather use that space for navigational side bar. I got rid of it by using the commenting out the following code, using PHP in the MonoBook.php file (hopefully you have made a copy of it).

<div class="portlet" id="p-logo"><br>
<a style="background-image: url(<?php $this->text('logopath') ?>);" <?php<br>
?>href="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($this->data['nav_urls']['mainpage']['href'])?>" <?php<br>
?>title="<?php $this->msg('mainpage') ?>"></a><br>
</div><br>

The only problem with this method is that the logo is gone, but the sidebar didn't move up to take the logo's place. Look like it has to be tweaked some more.
