Modifying the default template in v4.

Jimpy,

I didn't say I wrote a book I said, "This is an excerpt from an e-Book that I am working on and will be releasing in the future."

The future is not here yet. Sorry.

There really is no substitute for learning a little html and CSS,

I have to agree with Larry. I've recently went through this in a template I designed and found out first hand that editors do add what they want, even change things around on you. I found out with the help of Mike and Eric and others here in the forums.

So I'm in the learning stage as we speak. I'm still going to use a wysiwig editor for basics, but at least now when done I will know what look for and change in my template to clean it up and become standard compliant.

http://www.w3schools.com/ is the best place to start learning.

I'd just like to say as a brand new 68 user I cannot thank the users of this forum and input from the moderators enough to make my transition to 68 as painless as possible. In one day my site is up and running with just the help from reading the blogs and forum. I did just as written and all has worked as specified. I would like to make one comment, in adjusting the height of the Heading to insert my logo it did take me an hour or so as my use of AOL somehow prevented me from actually seeing the correct results of my adjustments, as soon as I viewed my site in explorer or firefox all was just as it should be. Going back to AOL on the same computer the image was still under the blue banner but switching to another computer using AOL showed that he image was in the correct position. Other than this little glitch working with the program has been extermely easy.

Thanks again to Mike and the other moderators.
