the current theme you are using is not sandbox, but heres the header for your current theme for the blog you provided, you’ll have to excuse my slowness I’m on a Netbook and everything is small especially when trying to do CSS. Another question is did you buy the CSS upgrade for your blog, cause it looks like you didn’t yet, or are you designing the blog before you buy the upgrade, just curious.
```
#header{
	padding:3em 1em; background: red url('http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u30/mnickens79/header.jpg') no-repeat;
height: 235px; width: 780px;
}
```

From my understand, you can’t do a navigation bar with the theme your currently using so switch back to sandbox theme. Unfortunately, I have to wake up early in the morning to go buy books for next semester, so for my help you will have to wait til tomorrow afternoon, but theres a whole bunch of other people who could help you with this, especially devblog…hes really good.

Unless you love spam, it’s not a good idea to post your e-mail addy in a public forum.

You need to set the background colour somewhere on that blog. It may look white on your computer but on mine it’s showing my default background which looks very weird on your blog.

I think that your page looks pretty cool, it has some of the same looks that i’m looking for. But your nav bar does not go all the way across like I would like it to.

reason79,

So you want your blog look just like the one you posted above? If so, and if no one else has contacted you, I think I can help you.

Also, you don’t have to pay me. Just know that I’ll work on it whenever I can, which can take me a few days, and as soon as I have something, I’ll let you know.

Let me know if you’re interested.

BTW, I recommend you to change your theme to Sandbox-10.

Okay, reason79, here is the CSS for your blog. I made it as close to the sample as possible.

Please let me know once you’ve downloaded the text file so that I can remove it from the server.

Thanks.
