I all new to this but I'm working hard on a layout right now and wonderd if I can have both a header that scrolls and a sidebar/background image that's fixed.
Cause I don't understand how and I belive I saw something like that but maybe I'm just delusional

Yes, it is very possible (all of the layouts I made for cB have this).

Examples:

I don't mind if you look through the code on my layouts (I wouldn't recommend doing this on another author's layout), but if you want a tutorial that explains the code, look here:

Hmm, can you post a link to your journal or post the overrides you're using?
