…before I start developing my own theme

1. Please, forget the FrontPage from now on…
2. That’s a very simple 3 column design (btw, it has horizontal scrolling in FF), just find a good stable 3 column and get rid of the colours.
e.g. Vesuvius > https://www.transycan.net/blogtest/download-themes/
3. https://themes.wordpress.net
Don’t look for “exact” match – just for the basic layout. Everything else (like photo here and there) can be modified.
As I see it you have sidebarleft+content+sidebarright (=poll)… so look for 3 column if you want the same.

Moshu,
thank you for your reply. In the end I went for Gila. I tried Vesuvius but I kind of liked the look of Gila better.

However, can you tell me where images should go ?

I am trying to change the header of Gila and have upload a file called personalheader.jpg to my /wp-content/images/
directory. It didn’t get picked up so I copied the file to my /wp-content/themes/gila/images/ directory and it still didn’t get picked up.

Here is the code for header.php that I am using. Note that the anchor works . . it’s just the image which is not displayed.

<!-- ##### Header ##### -->
<div id="header"><br />
<h1 class="headerTitle"><br />
<a>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a><br />
</h1><br />
<div style="padding-left: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; font-size: 138%; color: #eee; font-weight: bold;" ><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div><br />
<div class="subHeader"><br />
<span class="doNotDisplay">Navigation: </span><br />
<?php if ( function_exists('wp_admin_bar') ) wp_admin_bar(); ?><br />
<a>>>" target="_blank" href="https://www.myspace.com/paulcoletti"><img border="0" src="../images/personalheader.jpg" width="182" height="125"></a><br />
</div><br />
</div><br />
<!-- End Header -->
