Need help: remove header info, side bar content

add this to the bottom of your stylesheet, style.css
you can edit it from the dashboard menu, Appearance, Editor

Open the file style.css and add to bottom
h1.logo-name, .logo-text { text-indent: -9999px }
that will hide the text in the header

The sidebar content is in theme file sidebar1.php You will have to delete code from that file. Make a backup copy first.

You may also find content in widgets, sidebar or footer.
You access these in the dashboard menu under Appearance – Widgets.

The lines around the body are coming from images used as backgrounds in the stylesheet.

Thanks for the info. It worked. However, I still cannot figure out what sheet the admin edit, log out info(showing in the middle of my page) and rss logo are located so that I can remove them. Anyone know what pages these are on and what I need to remove so I do not get any errors?

Also when I added my text I now get comment blocks. I tired removing them, but everything I try gives me an error. Any suggestions on what is the best way to remove these?

Also how do I get the title of the web page not to appear as a header on the page content?

thanks
