double-posting wasn’t my intent, thank you very much– I’ve explained the SEVERAL difficulties I’m having with getting tags to stick (and therefore my issue not sorting into the Atahualpa theme-related forum thread and consequently being seen and addressed by the theme author), MY MISTAKE posting this question to the wrong thread and then not having any utility to delete it.

I don’t, honestly, mean to get snotty here, but I’ve been struggling with just getting my question in the correct PLACE on the forums, let alone anything like a technical answer, for days now, and am a little bit out of patience, so your, doubtless good-intentioned, directive is somewhat irritating at this point.

thanks for the very helpful tips, krogenar.

I’m modifying this theme to beta an informal company blog that doesn’t yet have mgmt buy-in (i.e. $)– chose this theme because I wanted a design that allows a fixed background image “wallpaper” (for evident reasons)– but my css and php skillz are deeply rudimentary, I’m running an older version of wordpress (2.3.3, since that’s what’s supported by my plesk hosting platform), and I can’t figure out how to tweak the theme setup to get several things to work properly:

1. how to take out the SIFR-ized text (I’d rather assign my own fonts)
2. the column float issue in msie already mentioned
3. how to get existing sidebar functions to work properly (search, archive), or alternately revise my version so it’s widget-enabled and replace them

I simply don’t have a budget at this stage for paid assistance, so any help anyone can lend me would make me immensely grateful.
