customizing the header: images and links ?

hopefully this is in the right forum, if not please direct me.

i'm working on re-working my Zen Cart store, and my end goal will be something like this:

http://www.strangefamous.com

right now I'm a little confused by what I will need to do to create a custom header that includes the links (and images for them) that I need.

I'm pretty well versed in CSS and HTML, and have some PHP experience as well, but I need to be pointed in the right direction.

any ideas?

Re: customizing the header: images and links ?

kobra:

The tutorials/FAQ's link in the top nav bar on this page has many answers to these basic questions

https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=124

https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=127
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=260
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=135

and more...

I'll take a look at those again, it seemed like they weren't really what I was looking for when I searched previously.

Thanks.

Images +links

Standard html anchor code insert an src for an image if desired

<li><a href="http://your_external_link.com">Your Link Text</a></li>

It seems like the link quoted above might be the only relevant one (I'm either already familiar with or have implemented the others )

I think what I'm trying to accomplish is to add as many links to the header section as I desire, and arrange them in a way that works with the design elements I'm working with.

Can this be done using the method above, or will I need to do some more serious tweaking to achieve that?

Sorry if this is coming off as obtuse, most of the examples I have seen don't really seem to resemble the look I'm going for.

Thanks.

Re: customizing the header: images and links ?

Can add as many as you have space for and possibly in new div's to allow css tweaking
