Sorry for the delayed response. I just looked at your page and can't see any reason that setting the buttons at the top would cause the content to shift.
From your picture, I also can't tell where the title and body are in the page. Are those images to the left of the social buttons part of the article, or a module (or something else)? If you can post the URL of the page you took the image of, that may help us understand things more. Otherwise, we'd need to see the buttons in the "Top" position to narrow down what's wrong. It's likely a minor CSS issue that should be easy to diagnose though.
Thanks,
Alex
