Editing theme, having problems

Hello all,

Im currently designing a new website for myself and deceided after long nights getting annoyed with dreamweaver that i would make a wordpress site and just design the theme to suit what i want.

I have 90% of the site completed how i would like it but the final 10% is proving difficult.

Im doing it all on local host currently so cannot show online what it looks like.

the code that im struggling with is this

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php
$options = get_option(‘inove_options’);
if (function_exists(‘wp_list_comments’)) {
add_filter(‘get_comments_number’, ‘comment_count’, 0);
}
?>

<?php if ($options[‘notice’] && $options[‘notice_content’]) : ?>
<div class=”post” id=”notice”>
<div class=”content”>
<?php echo($options[‘notice_content’]); ?>
<div class=”fixed”></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); update_post_caches($posts); ?>
<div class=”post” id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>”>
<h2>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class=”content”>
<?php the_content(__(‘Read more…’, ‘inove’)); ?>
<div class=”fixed”></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; else : ?>
<div class=”errorbox”>
<?php _e(‘Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.’, ‘inove’); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

<div id=”pagenavi”>
<?php if(function_exists(‘wp_pagenavi’)) : ?>
<?php wp_pagenavi() ?>
<?php else : ?>
<span class=”newer”><?php previous_posts_link(__(‘Newer Entries’, ‘inove’)); ?></span>
<span class=”older”><?php next_posts_link(__(‘Older Entries’, ‘inove’)); ?></span>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class=”fixed”></div>
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

That code allows the homepage to link to a blog post and comments and things like that.

I dont want that. I just want a picture in the middle of the homepage that is a .gif type so it can flash away with different pictures i make it with. (can be clickable if needed to get to another part the site)

I hope this is do-able otherwise its back to dreamweaver and finding an easy to edit template (as most i had were unsuitable for the design i want)

Regards
