Okay! So, let's say you have all your pages. They're called home, layouts, graphics, about, and page5 (I couldn't think of anything else). In the template code, find the area for the navigation and changes the links' destination URL like you would for any myspace layout. Like so (I'm copying and pasting the code):

CODE

<p><a class="menu" target="_self" href="home.html">HOME</a><br />
<a class="menu" target="_self" href="about.html">ABOUT</a></p>
<p><a class="menu" target="_self" href="layouts.html">LAYOUTS</a></p>
<p><a class="menu" target="_self" href="graphics.html">GRAPHICS</a></p>
<p><a class="menu" target="_self" href="page5.html">PAGE5</a></p>

You do NOT need "http://www.yoursite.com/" because it's all in the same directory. Hopefully.

So you need to write out these pages and save them as .html files (or if you're going to use PHP .php files). Each page is a separate file. You'll have home.html, layouts.html, graphics.html, about.html, and page5.html. Basically, every single page has the same codes, except for the content area (because you want them all to have the same layout, but different content). The exception to this is if you're using PHP, but I don't think you've gotten that far yet.

Then you need to upload all of those files into your root directory. Since you're using 000webhost.com or whatever, which comes with cPanel, you can upload the files through that. Otherwise you might have to use an FTP host like FileZilla or SmartFTP. (Again, I don't think you've gotten this far yet.)

I'm still not entirely sure if this is what you're confused about, but I hope this helps a bit.
