    I take that back. I just realized I had and extra DIV from when I deleted the LEFT div I added. When I removed that it reverts to falling under the photo again – correct ‘x’ position but not correct ‘y’ position.

    I know, I was stalking you earlier ??

    Pardon my impatience. I am unemployed and excited and anxious to complete this but also beyond challenged and overwhelmed. I CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH.

    THIS ONLY WORKS on my homepage. The only difference in the other template is that I added an additional sidebar that just references another photo. The image settings are the same for both photos.

    Is it that messed up that you don’t know where to start with your reply?

    Based on what I think this means I can take Snippet 3 and add it to my functions.php BUT I have some additional questions/concerns.

    1) My functions.php references 2 other files in a function directory – sandbox.php and modmat.php. It would seem based on the code that sandbox.php is where I should add this. CORRECT? And does it replace something or is it addition to? Line 103 seems to have similar info.

    2) This code also references images which I don’t nee. I hope to be able to just replace the () with the name of the link and the ID with the number.

    Can I adjust the code like this? And remove the 2nd and 3rd lines?
    if ( is_page('advertising') || $post->post_parent == '11' ) {

    This is the original Snippet 3.

    <?php
    
    if ( is_page('about') || $post->post_parent == '2' ) {
        // the page is "About", or the parent of the page is "About"
        $bannerimg = 'about.jpg';
    
    } elseif ( is_page('learning') || $post->post_parent == '56' ) {
        $bannerimg = 'teaching.jpg';
    
    } elseif ( is_page('admissions') || $post->post_parent == '15' ) {
        $bannerimg = 'admissions.jpg';
    
    } else {
        $bannerimg = 'home.jpg'; // just in case we are at an unclassified page, perhaps the home page
    }	
    
    ?>

    ANY ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.

    Oops forget to also mention that for some completely unknown reason, after adding content to make it long images for posts and comment popped up. I removed these from the stylesheet in the beginning so I don’t understand how they are being referenced. I can delete them off the server but that doesn’t solve how it got there to begin with.

    I obviously do not know my ‘floats’ well since this is the second post I made where adding floats was the answer. I shall take this as a sign to read up on them. Thank you.

    that’s what i would of thought but i added text-transform: capitalize and get no reaction…. maybe i am just in the right place. So far, if you had said it was so.. it was.

    You are quite helpful ?? And I am quite thankful. Now I am undecided about the navigation. Even though I mis-interpreted what you said earlier, I do think I should have a ‘blog’ button now. I just need to decide on the fate of the others. I think it’s fine to combine ‘about’ & ‘contact’, do you? I’m going to go with that for now…. so, that CSS adjustment, whenever you are ready.

    I have so many more questions for you!

    But it’s a secret ??

    I am using this space just for testing. I own the domain associated with the design and when ready I will transfer and host accordingly.

    via comments, posts, etc… yes, but I am not sure why you ask? ??

    On another note (there will be so many) I am now wondering how to individually space out/pad my navigation items (which, duh, i found right in the admin control panel). It’s confusing to me since I can’t see these items individually. The image in the code is 4 nav bars. I need to space out each nav item differently to lay on top of this image correctly…..The CSS looks like this…

    div#access{ background-image:url(‘images/nav-blue-four.png’); width: 323px; height: 23px; margin: -2px 0px 0px 505px; }
    div#menu{
    font-size:12px;
    height:69px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }
    div#menu ul{ width: 400px; height: 100%; margin: 0px;}
    div#menu ul li a{ font-weight:bold; text-decoration:none; color: #6b3d07; padding: 6px 5px 0px; margin:0px; display: block; border: 0px!important;}
    div#menu ul li{float:left; list-style:none;}
    li.current_page_item a{ font-weight: normal; color: #6b3d07!important;}
