Lynne,

I am not out of the woods yet. I am a speed reader and I read both papers already. They did not answer my question... but I am a rookie and maybe I am trying to do something that should be done to begin with. Here is then where I need the help of a pro.

The 10 step guide is mis leading. It does not show you how to change the header file or header code. It shows you how to swap the background image use the stylevar editor. I am trying to do something different. I wish to replace the whole header block with my custom code.

Is it unatural or a bad idea to do this ? My code has my own css, my own layout.. etc. You can see in the links above. So changing the stylevar doc_background is not enough for me. So is it easier to take this route and accept the limitations or can I actually use a custom header and footer ? Thanks Lynne, you rock !

Forgive my ignorance. Who is Don and how to I get to his blog ? Do you have a link ?

Sorry I know I am a total newb but I learn quickly ! :-)
