Nice design but there is no scrollbar, although you can scroll the page regardless.

I’d bring the left column closer and have it as a three column that fitted on 800 pixels

You might need to make a div for the bookcover container, then put the image inside it if you are mixing images on the one main page.

#bookdiv {
width:auto;
}
#bookdiv img {
border: whatever;
padding:what you need;
border: and so on;
}

Once you make the div, you only need right click in Dreamweaver etc to write the div, then drop the image in there.

<div id=”bookdiv><img src=”here”/></div>

You can display the header elsewhere if you move the code from the header.php to the main index.php page.

Open the header php file and just cut and paste the H1 and description somewhere else, to keep the blog title up.

Resize it with Css to create your desired effect.

It might be your Css, or some error in a plug in you may be using.

What is in your header?

Have you modified it?

Off the top of my head, you may have some non html character in the blog name or description.

I’d try uploading another header, and see how that goes.

Just to close this thread, the answer given by Moshu was spot on.

As stated, I did not need to include an extra images folder, and can simply include the images in the usual WordPress standard directory of img, and have a subfolder as you get a lot of graphics slicing banners.

For anyone looking to slice banners and still have your theme switcher work ok, this is the route to take.

Remember that using slices you can customise your banner a lot more, and add hyperlinks and animated gifs to fit in.

Thanks for the replies, I’ll check out the options and have at least heard of ‘go daddy’.

If anyone has any more suggestions let us know.

Thanks again – you were right about normal url not working, it works with the home page, but not when you navigate to another page.

With the included php code you gace above, it works a treat.

And I do not need to have an image folder in the WordPress root directory.

Thanks for your patience, I’ve figured it out. I uploaded an images folder with all the files to the root of the WordPress installation,I’ll move it back to my own themes folder after I rewrite the urls.

Thanks a million Moshu

This has made my day

I’ll remove the url as I’m still working on this design, a nice 3 column that sits well with most small screen resolutions.

I’ll release some themes soon.

I know what you mean, but cannot see were I am making a mistake pointing to the path of the files.

I use the header.php file to bring the image slices into play, here is the path I point to ….

<td colspan=”2″ rowspan=”2″>
<img id=”christian_730_240_02″ src=”images/christian_730_240_02.png” width=”506″ height=”62″ alt=”” /></td>

I’ve got a folder named ‘images’ in the root directory of this theme, then I have a folder called ‘banners’ then ‘christian’ which contains all the image files.

I’m a bit lost at where I’ve gone wrong.

I don’t know if the image ID should be renamed to reflect a path.

I’ve used Adobe to generate the tables, with slices.

I’d really like to keep the sliced banner, the reason I used that approach was down to not being able to include an animated candle on the original banner, which would fit into a designated point on banner.

By using slices in the banner, it cuts down the time it takes to download for 56k users (who I think of) and allows a great chance for putting several animated gifs into the banner, (cuts out using divs to do so) plus I can add hover descriptions of various aspects of the banners art and maybe a few hyperlinks.

WordPress is addictive stuff.

Here you are Moshu

It’s work in progress, not the finished thing.

You should see the header with a table, but no images

I don’t know how to start a thread in this forum, so I’ve posted here in the hope someone can help
