Text in Header

I am using 1.3.9h

I am trying to add 2 sets of header text that I want aligned to the far left as in this example: midwestmindandbody.com.

I am not using a logo so how do I do this?

Re: Text in Header

Can you create an image with that contains the text and use that as your logo?

Re: Text in Header

Text is better than an image of text for SEO purposes.
You can define the tagline with a span around the second line, and style that to give the two lines different font sizes.

define('TAGLINE', 'Midwest Mind and Body <span id="tagline2">Live Life Naturally</span>');

Add to your stylesheet:

#tagline2 {font-size: 0.7em; display: block; margin-top: 1.5em;}

Adjust to taste.

Re: Text in Header

Correction: the actual define is in /includes/languages/english/your_template/header.php

Line #21 : define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'Midwest Mind and Body <span id="tagline2">Live Life Naturally</span>');
