 * Hi,
 * I have just bought two themes which looks great. I want to customise the website,
   but I know absolutely nothing about css,html,php etc. These are the two main 
   skills i would like to learn….
 * 1. Replace text with images – such as the menu headers.
 * 2. Add rollover effects to Logo, Headers and project boxes – whether they are
   image rollovers or text rollovers.
 * Ive tried searching lots of forums but a lot of it goes way over my head. If 
   anyone could help me get to grips with it that’ll be awesome.
 * Maybe there are plugins that can do the job?
 * Ive also set up a child theme which I hear is a good move to make. will this 
   make any difference to the process?
 * One last point, would it be easy to replicate the process across all themes?
 * Sorry for being such a noob. Really appreciate it if anyone has the patience 
   to help me.
 * Sean

 * Why not work with the theme options and plug-ins before you start changing the
   code?

 * Ive worked with the theme options as much as I can, but it doesn’t quite give
   me the flexibility I want. I had a search in the plugins to see if I can get 
   the features I’m looking for, but I couldn’t find anything.
 * Ive spent the last three days trying to get my head around customising but it
   doesn’t seem to be getting me anywhere. Im pretty blind to this whole process.

 * > just bought two themes
 * this forum does not support commercial (bought) themes
    – ask the theme’s seller
   for support, as this is part of what you pay for.
 * however, you might get some general suggestions when you post a link to your 
   site to illustrate what you have so far.
