In reply to: vinnyfrombrooklyn.comYes, it looks nice, although it’s difficult to discern all the letters in the logo because some are white-against-white.
Looks great, though. 🙂

In reply to: WP 2.2.1: Dots, Comma, Quotes became JunkHm. I only see those gibberish characters in the source code.
In my experience, this is usually caused by cut/pasting from a word processor (like Microsoft Word) which embeds printer characteristics for which there is no Web coding equivalent.

In reply to: Can a comment be harmful if there’s no hyperlink in it?Check the names, too. Very often, their names are not “Joe” or “Mary” — their names are “Illinois auto insurance” and things like that.

In reply to: How to change Pics in the templateIn the theme you’re using (landzila-from the swamp?):
(1) make a copy of the theme folder (in case there’s a problem)
(2) put the new images in the theme’s /images folder
(3) open the header.php and make your changes
(4) upload the theme (or just the changed header.php and images) to your web serverThat should do it. Of course, it may sound simpler than it is, but it’s good to know how to do these things.

In reply to: Adding an author picture> I am a fool. It was a permissions problem
Well, why should you be different? 🙂
We’ve all, I’m sure, made loads of mistakes along the way.

In reply to: Do search engines index the whole site or front page only?Here’s some proof that search engines index more than the home page:
Google: site:wordpress.org
Yahoo: site:wordpress.org
Search engines may not each index *all* pages of a website, but you can see that they do indeed go beyond the first page.

In reply to: Anchor’s don’t workIt’s slightly wrong.
Your a tag links to “#”, which means that page — not somewhere lower on the page. Try this:
<a name="something"></a>That creates the place you’re going to link to. And then link like this:
<a href="#something">some text</a>Also, since underlined text on the Web is generally taken to be a link, you’ll probably confuse readers if you underline non-link text. It would be preferable to use some other formatting to highlight titles (unless that’s part of your overall design — but it would have to be clear to viewers that that’s what you’re doing). Bold, em or strong would probably be preferable.

In reply to: How Do I change the headerOkay; here’s the general idea.
– Put the new header image in the images folder (or wherever it’s supposed to be in your theme); it should have the name filename as the header image for your theme unless you’re going to change in in one of the two items below.
– If your header image is being called (inserted into your pages) by the CSS file, then change the link there.
– If your header image is being inserted directly into the header.php, then change the link there.
– Then, upload all the changed files to your web hosting account.
