    I want to replace the generic site name. How would I add the logo banner in yet make the site name and description invisible.

    Following is the logo area of the header:

    <!– Logo –>
    <div id=”logo”>
    <h1>“><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
    <div class=”description”><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></div>
    </div>
    <!– END Logo –>

  • try and replace <?php bloginfo('name'); ?> with <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.jpg" />
    assuming that your logo image is called logo.jpg, has the right size for the space and is located in the /images folder of the theme.

    and then make the description invisible by adding
    .description { visibility:hidden; } after the existing style of .description (probably in style.css)

    Thanks, but did not work for pulling the logo in, it did take care of the description though.

    what is the name and location of your logo image?
    how dooes the code in header.php look like now?

    what else has changed? if anything?
    is the title still there?

    link to your site?
    it often helps, to have a look at the live problem.

    I again appreciate your help, when I placed the code you suggested the title did go away but did not pull the logo in,and did not link to the site, and it is located in images/logo.jpg. the description went away fine. I tried to contact the author a couple of weeks ago but nothing back yet. I am using the choco theme, and would be more than happy to let you in the back side of the blog if it would help. As of now i have reverted back to normal.

    I have researched and tried several variations of different coding that others have suggested, and still get no results.

    Liking the choco theme as well, but would like to be able to do the exact same thing. I would like to add a header image and hide the text.

    I haven’t tried yet, giving the op the benefit of the doubt that the suggested methods don’t work. Or would that be considered pure laziness?

    Heck I can’t even figure out the gravatar…. I’m screwed!

    Well I figured out how to add an image to the header area. Also added a little custom navigation up there.

    Does anyone know how I can hide the text (blog title & tagline) that sits just under my banner? I would like to eliminate it, and the space as well.

    TIA

    EDIT: DO you hate it when you ask how to do something, then you figure it out like a minutes later?

    Nice Carvings… how did you actually do it? I’m trying to figure out this same task in the Choco theme.
