I've followed all the tutorials I could find [[I've done it one way, it didn't work so I restarted everything and did another]] but my theme or layout is still not working. Nothing even shows up. I know it's gonna be a long post but these are my codes. As my Style.css i have:

Which template did you edit? If you edited the classic it would be much easier for you to have it working?

Ok I put your template into my wordpress and heres how it came out:
http://www.dramatiq.org/index.php?wptheme=classic

Is that how you wanted it?

There were images with it but I think my host has a problem because no matter where I put an image if you open it it shows as no.gif. ><. The content is the way I wanted it though...And why will it work on your site and not mine? Ugh. This is complicated for me. I'm new at this layout thing in general.

I think you should just turn the images on and have your sidebar showing.
Add the header image on top. To do so add this in your header:
CODE
<style>
.image{
position: absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
</style>
<div class="image">
<img src="urltoheader">
</div>


Then let us see how it looks then.

Its not wasting my time at all, just because you have wp doesn't mean you have to make your theme in wp. There are easier ways.
