Hi there,

Well, I think I've got a pretty good start, but I can't figure out how, or if, I can load my custom home page as I built it with another program.

http://leopardlounge.mybisi.com

I have linked my custom home page through the large logo at the top of each page for access, but I would prefer for my custom home page to replace the bisi template home.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Your home page design looks really nice. Have you tried just pasting your code into the custom templates default page tab? If you have the bisi markup in place it seems to me that your page should work fine as a home page.

Hi Jubilee,

Exactly where is the "custom templates default page tab" that you speak of above?

Hi again,

I've been at this for hours now... my eyes are starting to pop - I havent been up to see Conan O'Brien in a LONG, LONG time!

So, I made it a little farther - but now, I can't figure out how to align the majority of my page.  My top logo is centered but nothing else is???

I also can't figure out how to input the html for my green leopard print background for the text and image boxes.

You have been so helpful - thought I'd give it another shot.

Thanks, i'm off to bed for now...

A good night's sleep always helps!

To center your content, I'd suggest wrapping the whole thing in a div and styling it on your css sheet with right-margin:auto and left-margin:auto. Also, you can imput your background with a css selector for the div that you want the background to display in. It should read like this:

background-image: url(http://xxxxx.com/xxxxx/xxxxx.gif);

Sorry. It's called home page tab instead of default page tab. My bad.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I just thought I had missed something.

In the sample files, the html is called Default, but that's what gets pasted in the Home page tab, so you're right either way.
