    Thanks so much Andrew! I appreciate the links and know my limits, definitely going to go with a theme already available rather than try to create my own!

    Thanks again,

    Hi Andrew! Sorry it took me so long to get back, I had to run out to an appt. So I should have gotten that blue type as an obvious indicator they were links…sorry, thank you for clearing that up for me!

    I’m afraid I’m still lost and a bit confused, maybe I’m not even at a level where I can grasp this stuff. I went to the Child Themes and began reading, but where/how am I supposed to make a new directory in wp-content/themes?

    okay, i’m sorry if this may be a dumb question, but are did a search for Child Theme or Custom Style/CSS in the plugins but couldn’t find either. Do you happen to know of the link?

    So if I do try to change the header through those plugins or switching themes, will I be starting from scratch? This is my friend’s business website so will she need to redo all of the tabs linking, adverts, and body portions of her site too??

    Thank you so much!

    Yes, there in the editor portion there is: Styles: Stylesheet (style.css)

    And I have the image I’d like to change it to, I’ve got it saved as a jpeg on my computer but here’s a link to wat it looks like on flickr: http://flickr.com/gp/77196975@N04/163T0M

    thank you so very much!! I feel a bit embarrassed at the amateurish mistake on my end…but that about sums up my experience! 😛

    got rid of that extra code and the layout is all back in order, thank you again! 🙂

    @esmi…thank u so much for following up with me because i’m having some more problems. sorry i didn’t reply sooner…i’m admittedly completely techie lame so please don’t laugh too hard at my questions:
    1) i’m not totally sure how to reset the plug-ins properly. do i need to go thru and just deactivate them all and then reactivate?
    2) i imported my Blogger blog into my WordPress themed site. now, to do that i used the Blogger Importer plug-in. i’m sort of afraid that if i deactivate that one and try to reactivate it, will i lose any or some of the posts and comments that had been imported??

    ugh, i’m sorry i feel like a mess! now, the database you mention, what exactly are you referring to? and how would i try to repair that??

    yes, feel free to laugh, but please don’t abandon this lost cause!! 😛

    hey esmi! thanks so much for the reply! ya, the comments were deleted even from the back end!

    i tried switching to different themes but would find that between different themes other problems would occur: with one some of my pages wouldn’t show up, others the posts would overlap on top of each other. i finally found one theme that looks okay, my comments were never retrieved, but i don’t exactly like the theme all the much. i’ve never, in the past, found so many issues with different themes, is that common? i’ll try resetting the plugins folder, thanks for the tip! 🙂
