Thanks again linux4me, you put me on the right track and by experimenting I have managed to place an image to appear instead of the greyed out camera.

For other Desire theme users, either the same image or different images have to be inserted into your posts as those then appear in sequence with the slide show of your post headings. You will need to experiment with the image size to make it look right.

Thanks and I shall show the query as resolved

Thank you linux4me2 for the suuggestions above. I have found out how to disable the slide show which overcomes the greyed out camera appearing but of course does away with the post slide show. So far I have not found anywhere in the desire appearance or other menus to insert a picture that covers the camera – the backgrould inserts simply place images in the screen background not the blog background. I shall experiment with uploading to a post in different ways to see if that works.

Anyway thanks for your prompt reply

Thanks esmi for the reply. Found answer by reading source code on my wordpress site and tried what looked like urls for rss feed (not in sidebar but footer) pasted into site and it works.

My host service has installed 2.7.1 for me and it works (well the side bar has disappeared but I seem to recall that is the subject of other posts which I shall look up).

I will leave the post unresolved for awhile in case a response to this problem is received and will let you know.

Thanks for responding. I have asked my host provider for those details and we have between ourselved tried 3 different hostname combinations without success. Two issues occur
i) message connection details required and
ii) the hostname field can not be cleared to enter a new host entry (I note that other unresolved posts also have experienced this issue).

Any advice as to what to do?
