a little help... Options

[biz0]

I am pretty sure there is a topic around here about this..but mines a little more personal. lol

I just need help with the banner. My journal is click here I don't need help with anything else. My AIM is biz0. i'll post my code and maybe someone can edit it for me? I dunno......im a desperatae n00b. sorry.

[jordanriane]

Exactly what do you need help with?

[pensivegnome]

I think she wants the banner on the top & right now it's behind her entries.
try posting your overrides. I'll see what i can do.

if you actually looked at the page, it's not a header image.
It's a background image she's using.

The image just isn't tiled, nor is it fixed.
It flows with the page, and is made to show up once.

[pensivegnome]

i did look at the page.
she had previously asked me
about my overrides that I used
for my banner so i'm asuming
that she's trying to get that background
image as a header image.

[jordanriane]

Well, since I'm not you, I posted my reply so I could help her, and get more specifics as to what she wants.

[pensivegnome]

yeah i know I was just responding to your response to my response to her. wow =]

anyone wanna help? :(

[*Libertie*]

Okay, please don't double post. :) The reason that no one was replying is that no one was online at the time. So, you wanted to move your entries down and put your background image on top so it looks like a header image?

If so, I'm gonna try to help; if not, completely ignore this.

Right now, you still have stuff from the person that gave you your overrides that can be removed. Your problem is that they gave you directions and I guess you didn't see those. In the part where it says padding-top, it said add 30 to your image's height. I didn't add quite that much, because it brought the text down too far. This is what you should have as your code now:

I also added percentages to the table so it will align properly in firefox as well as IE. It wasn't exactly centered.
