 * I am new to WordPress and I was hoping to get some solid advise. For the most
   part I have the page up and running. But the main page (index), or the page people
   first see, I want to look more like a webpage than a blog page. What I am basically
   trying to accomplish is having a banner with text description (sorta of like 
   a welcome). I am able to do this on other pages by setting it to “Banner Page”
   under page attributes so they don’t have the option to reply or leave a comment
   like with a blog. But I don’t really see that option or at least where to modify
   the index/main page? at all. It seems that the main page is seen strictly as 
   a blog entry.
 * Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,
 * Newbie~

 * If you log into your site, go to the admin panel, select Settings->Reading, you
   will see an option to select what the front page displays.
