newbie xfce question
 

i cant figure out how to add another panel just to hold some application icons so i can leave the bottom one at default

right-click on any icon in the panel and you can add a menu to it ("add menu to launcher"). in the menu you can add more apps.

edit:> you might be able to run a superkaramba panel, too, but i haven't figured out how to do it yet. someone on the xfce list might know.
