Bootstrap 3 Navbar with Icons & Carousel

Question

I am working on creating a site with bootstrap3. Unfortunately, even after watching many videos I am still having problems.

I would like the logo on my navbar to remain on the left side (which I have) and other additional icons that will be links to other area of the page to be toward the left - unfortunately I have not figured this out via html/css. Please check out www.frobot.net to see what I am attempting to emulate. Essentially, there are multiple icons next to the text.
I would like a white background for the navbar and for it to have a definitive bottom rather than meshing into the rest of the website, if that makes sense. As of right now, there is not a consistent horizontal white area with the navigation tools.
I set up a carousel for three images and only the first image appears.

Can someone please point out issues in my code?

Answer 1

you can throw a bottom border on the navbar and modify the css of the border to make the space between the navbar and the rest of your page. You also forgot the data-ride="carousel" in the div tag for the carousel.
