Now I'm thinking of a potentially more serious issue. The lack of text content on the homepage. The slide pics are very nice and dramatic but everything I've read here at zc indicates that there should be some text.

And looking at the "main page text" in admin I just saw why I kept seeing the GHOST of the Winchester New/Featured home images: I brought it over to this template. duh. But trying text makes it hidden at the top near the logo. I wonder if text can be added maybe at the bottom below the slide? But that probably wouldn't look good.

So the choice is looks vs content text?
You need to turn off the banners from the winchester responsive templates. If you want them to show on the dover fine template you will need to adjust the z-index. The same is true of the home page text or any other page element that you want to add to the main page. Anything can be turned on, added, etc, but due the z-index on the background slide show, you will need to adjust the z-indexes of the elements so that they will show on top of the slide show.

You could also add the content in a div below the slide show. There are many possibilites---no reason to choose between content and the slide show.

As always, the free template packages are offered as a starting point. If you do not want to use them "out of the box", then you can modify them as you need to.
