Hi. I've got a bit further on my site customisations. A while ago I asked how to put an image in the main page (I think you call it CentreColumn) and you suggested that I do the following:
*"An easy way to do this is re-open that same file (includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php), and where you removed that tagline text, add your image code (with the correct width and height of course):
<img src="includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/YOUR_IMAGE.jpg alt="YOUR ALT TEXT HERE" title="YOUR IMAGE TITLE HERE" height="100" width="500" />
And be sure to upload the image to the correct folder."*
Actually, you said you wanted an image in the header file... the instructions I gave you were for putting an image in the header, NOT for in the main page centerColumn.

The way I have tried it last night (before I found your reply) was by putting some html in the Define_Main_Page.php of the Admin control panel. But that makes the image a bit out of sync with the centre column. Refer to my site to see what I mean:

So...I will undo that and make the changes to header.php and see how that looks.
So, where do you want the image? In the header? If so you will of course need a much smaller image. If you actually want it in the middle, then DON'T follow my previous instructions, because I was giving you instructions for putting an image in the header. If you want it in the middle there, it looks to me like you just need a smaller image.

Two other questions if I can:
- I've changed the background colour of my site to an off-white but just can't seem to find where I change the colour of the bits that are on the left and right hand side of the logo. Can you help on that one?
There is no color defined for that, you have to add the color to it. its the #logoWrapperOuter.

- As I've turned off the header graphic that sits on top of the Breadcrumb bar it has left a tiny bit of the border showing on the left and right hand sides. do you know how I can remove that please?
You removed the image for that section, but did not remove its height. Change #centerColumnOuter to this:
#centerColumnOuter {
margin:-.1em .5em 0 .5em;
width:70em;
position:relative;
clear:both;
}

- Is there a way to change the font size of the 'Home' Login' and the default text in the search field and on the Search button itself? I just want to make it slightly smaller.
You can do this:
#navMainSearch {
margin:0 auto;
text-align:right;
padding:1px 2px;
}
#navMainSearch input {
margin:0 auto;
text-align:right;
font-size:1em;
}
