Thanks for the invite Sam! This is my first post here. And it relates to making a banner for the top of my page. Something nice and purty. 1) How did you all make yours (photoshop i assume)?
2) How did you integrate it into the page html wise?
I am kinda new to all this html stuff but have been learning quickly. Please help!
You can use Photoshop or PaintShopPro or any good graphics program to make your banner. You just need to know how wide to make it by looking at your blog's template. Yours is a little tricky because you're using a template that uses images to create rounded corners. Normally you'd look at the header section of your template and replace the background of it with your banner image. (You also may have to make some changes to how your blog's title and description are displayed.) Your header uses a couple of images to form the rounded corners, so I would have to experiment to find the best way to replace them with a banner. I suggest you look around and find someone else who uses the template you like and check their source code to see how they added their banner.

Thanks so much for the advice Susan. I was thinking of using one of the Minima templates anyways, just needed the push.
How do I check sourse code and all? Really, html is new to me, and while I am learning, I could use the pointers!
BTW, your blog is quite shibby! I luvs it!
