I need to add a text box to a page in my theme

    So I’m trying to add a text box underneath a slider for a few pages on my site http://missrosen.wordpress.com (but not the entire theme). I don’t want an input field text box though because I don’t want users to be able to input any info into the box. I just want a delineated box that only administrator’s can access, delete, and add text to. It seems like I would need to edit the HTML to do this (not the CSS) but I don’t see any tutorials on how I would do that. Would I just have to go into the HTML and create a div manually or is there a better, more clean and precise way to do that? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks,
    Tommy

    This is a multiuser blogging platform. Our blogs are not free standing. They share a common architecture and we bloggers cannot access and templates underlying our themes and edit the php or the HTML.

    Please read the Custom Design FAQs http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#frequently-asked-questions

    Does Customize let me edit HTML?
    No. Customize allows you to edit fonts, colors, and CSS only. You can change the appearance of a theme, but not its HTML markup or PHP code. If you require this functionality, please consider moving your blog to a web host that supports theme code modifications, suitable hosts can be found here. http://get.wp.com/hosting/ Read more about why here. http://support.wordpress.com/code/ …
