In reply to: Changing Size of ThemeIt would be in the style.css
You might want to post the URL.
Changing the size of a theme usually isn’t a matter of just changing a number however. There is most likely going to be several things you will need to change such as the container, content, column(s), and sidebar widths.

In reply to: Help Please: Replacing A Background ImageLook in your style.css file (in the theme directory), you will see something along the lines of
#header h1 a, #header h2 a { background: url(images/logo.png); }
That is where it is declaring the logo image.
By default that theme is using yourthemedirectory/images/logo.png

You probably need to include some more details ??

In reply to: How can I delete all posts older then X months ?If your are comfortable using phpmyadmin this would be the way to go
https://www.xarj.net/2008/how-to-mass-delete-posts-in-wordpress-phpmyadmin-sql/
(remember to always backup your database first!)As far as doing it through the admin panel, I think you are stuck with sorting the posts by date and just deleting them.

In reply to: >? showing on page and lots of issues!Hmm that’s very odd.
Check your header.php – it looks like the is a rogue php close tag some where.
As far as all the characters, it could be because you don’t have a charset defined on the site, usualy utf-8.
Add this in your header.php above the <title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
and remove
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Language" CONTENT="EN">

In reply to: How to remove box around icons – what file to edit?It’s getting the borders from
.entry ul { border:1px solid #C8C8C8;
add this to your css
.sociable ul, .sociable ul li { border: none; }
see if that fixes it – it should ??

In reply to: img src not workingYou would use (in your theme’s header.php)
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
which will use the style.css in your theme directory.
If you wish to include additional CSS files use
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/yourfile.css" type="text/css" />
What is the template you used for the base theme?
I would look at that and compare it to yours. See if anything is not being included.
For example, I looked and there is no jquery (or similar) being loaded.

In reply to: How to make absolute positioned image “liquid”?It depends where on the page you are trying to put it and which parent element is assigned position:relative (as mentioned above).
Post the URL.

In reply to: permalink keeps adding numbers…I don’t think there is a way to change that.
As far as I know /%postname%/ will always need to be unique.
Some blogs use domain.com/%postname%/ – which even though is not good practive – it’s important that the post name is a unique string.

In reply to: Black buttons theme footer encryptionI’m not sure about encryption, but a quick look in firebug shows your footer div has no CSS at all – which would explain why it’s not displaying right.
I looked in your style.css and you have an error. Right now it displays
?php wp_footer(); ? /* Footer */
No idea why you have that PHP line in there, but remove that and see if it fixes things.
