While I’m at it, is there a way I can make the title in the titlebar dynamic according to which section you’re viewing, like My Blog » Stats or My Blog » Username’s Comments, etc.?

Or perhaps something a bit more complex. Here’s two examples I use on my sites.
Viper007Bond.com:
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
FinalGear.com:
<title>FinalGear.com<?php
echo " :: News";
wp_title(' :: ');
if (is_search()) {
echo " :: Search Results For "$s"";
if ($paged && $paged > 1) echo " :: Page $paged";
} elseif ($paged && $paged > 1) echo " :: Page $paged";
?></title>
The above in action:

Thanks for that…but it all looks so complicated and foreign to me, I don’t know a thing about php. >_< I’m not even sure where I’m supposed to put it, let alone trying to configure it. Is it just supposed to go somewhere near the top of the php file?
Wherever you have your <title> tags. If you are using themes, it’d be /wp-content/themes/your-theme/header.php.
bloginfo('name') spits out the name of your blog
wp_title() spits out the title of the post, page, etc.
So if you were to do this:
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php wp_title('--'); ?></title>
You’d get My Blog--Title of Post when viewing a single post.
The <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> part on my blog displays ” » Blog Archive ” if you are viewing a single post.
Follow?
Oh it already has that setup for the theme and stuff, I want to get it to work for the wp-stats.php plugin that sits in the root blog dir.

Right now all it has is “Steph’s Blog” at the top, but I want it to say “Steph’s Blog » Stats” when viewing the main stats page, and “Steph’s Blog » Username’s Comments” when viewing a user’s comments (http://www.bebi.r0x0rs.com/blog/wp-stats.php?author=Steph). As I can see it in the file (that I linked in my first post) I didn’t see any kind of <title> setup.
