Having Trouble Creating this Layout…

    Please take a look (sketched layout): http://imageshack.us/f/43/imag0913j.jpg/

    This is intended to be a home page with no blog, commenting, sidebar, or any widgets. I created a new page named “home” and set this as the starting page for my website and made it static.

    None of my code will show up. When I insert an image, it does not appear, and none of my CSS styling is apparent.

    Any advice on what I might be doing wrong?

    None of my code will show up.

    can you paste the code into a http://pastebin.com/ and paste the link to it here?

    can you poast a link to your site as well?

    I believe I have resolved one issue – I can now see the CSS styling by renaming the file to style.css (previously it was “mysitename.css”). However, I still cannot see images that are hard coded with HTML. Do I need to call them with PHP?

    I have all images in a folder within themes / mysite / images.

    I figured the image problem out as well, thanks to a random page found via Google (searched the Codex and didn’t have any luck??).

    To call an image path:

    <a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>">
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/image_name.jpg" alt="logo" /></a>

    Yay.
