The Pieces of Paper Rapidweaver theme from Henk Vrieselaar.
The instructions are as follows:
This modification is a bit tricky so pay close attention, ok? Make your Bannerzest banner 770 px wide by 150 px tall. I also used some of the "torn paper" image overlays inside the theme and Photoshop to make all the images in the banner look torn but you don't have to do that. The banner was created from some photos I took during a trip to Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah.
You'll need a bit of code for this modification. You can download a text file with it here. The instructions are as follows:
Right-click the following link and download a small zipped copy of a text file called "piecesofpaper" Once you've downloaded it, double-click the zip file to expand. You'll need the code contained in this file in a few minutes.
piecesofpaper
Publish the Bannerzest theme to its place on your server and select "Show HTML" (see Publish at right)
When you click this button, you'll be presented with another window (see Copy at right) You may want to hold off for a minute or two before copying that code as I'm going to have you copy something else first.
The next step is to open the theme's index.html file with the text editor you've selected and paste some code I'll provide along with the Bannerzest code in the correct location. To open this file, right click the theme in Rapidweaver's theme drawer, choose "Reveal Theme Contents In Finder...". This will present you with a folder called "Contents". Open it and you will find the index.html file. Right click on this file and navigate to your chosen text editor application. In this example I chose TextWrangler. (see Textwrangler at right)
Scroll through the code until you find a place that matches that shown in the photo (see Paste here 1 at right) You want to create a blank line beneath h2 and slogan code and above that /div code. You have two pieces of code to paste in this modification. The first bit of code is called "code 1" and is in red in the file you've downloaded:
Now, go back to Bannerzest and copy the code for your banner. You want to paste the Bannerzest code in the right spot (see Paste here 2 at right). Just place your cursor in the spot indicated and paste in the code from Bannerzest by either choosing edit>Paste from TextWrangler's menu or simply by pressing the Apple-v key combination (command-v). Now that your code is inserted, there is one more task to accomplish. Next you need to copy the blue CSS code from the downloaded file and paste into Page Inspector>Header>CSS field (place on every page of your project).
That oughtta do it! That was one of the toughest modification yet but I think you'll agree, the results are worth it!!
Remember, when you use this technique and publish your site, send me a link so I can put your site in the showcase!
Pat yourself on the back for a job well-done!!
