Hey guys, ive read through the forums and cant find the solution to my problem!

Default Update

still unsure how to make the main image change. Maybe i should explain more clearly. This is the CSS code: #head-1 { background: url(images/head_1.jpg) no-repeat; width: 409px; height: 386px; top: 0; left: 369px; position: absolute; } #head-2 { background: url(images/head_2.jpg) no-repeat; width: 156px; height: 38px; top: 386px; left: 622px; position: absolute; now the two images names head_1 and head_2 i want to change but cannot do it. Even if i change the name of my image to head_1 it wont appear on the page. any help would be greatly appreciated guys

leave the css alone
look in the images directory
it is there you will find the images you want to replace.

I'm having the exact same problem on the exact same template...I'm using the kompozer editor and while I can change all the text, and even get rid of the other pics, the big one on the left won't budge without completely freaking out the page. I'm not sure where the images directory is (I'm new to this program and having trouble figuring it out anyway.)

Help!

Thanks!

The images directory is usually in the "public_html" folder. It should be named "images" or "img" or anything like that (I don't know what was its name in the source files).
You may check it by looking at the images properties in the browser window (click on the image, choose "properties" and see the URL, it ends with /XXX/image_name.jpg, where /XXX/ is an images directory).
