  I did all the right steps when attempting to download a cool pic off my hard drive on to my header. When I clicked the “crop and publish” button it had an error message that said I need to retry again. Well…..after doing that 4 times I gave up. Help!!!

  Wow!! how weird!! I tried again and this time it went through!!! but….I do have another question!! On my home page I accidentally entered something twice. I need to delete it and I assume that is with CSS. So my question is do I go into the editor and type the CSS information there?? I am using twenty ten theme. http://cleanthosecarpets.com

  That depends on what you’re trying to do delete – what duplication are you referring to?

  thanks for the info!! i am very new to all of this. What I would like to do is delete “Blue Ribbon Service Co and then move the title “Blue Ribbon Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning above the header (where Blue Ribbon Service Co. used to be).

  Okay, to do that I would recommend changing your site title to be “Blue Ribbon Carpet and Upholstery Clearing” at Settings > General in your blog’s Dashboard.

  You may also want to see if there is another layout that would work for you. We have a showcase for all of our themes that has some information on each one.

  Thankyou so much for your input.
  so….should I assume that the twenty ten theme is not the best choice??? Feel free to give me advice on another theme that you think might work better!!!! I need all the help I can get!!!

  Other themes will have similar issues, and Twenty Ten is a very good choice. You should pick the theme you really like the best. Try previewing a few others on the Appearance → Themes page inside your blog if you’re not sure.
