We started by looking at the code and modifying all the the DIV’s etc and ended up having to resort back to the original file. I’ll take a leaf out of your book and keep it simple. Thanks for the tips on this. Regards Mog

Not true at all. It really is limited only be the intentions of the designer and has the potential for some really slick, elegant dynamic functions. Keep your eyes open.

The ability to edit the look of your WordPress.com theme to your own liking by editing the CSS of the Sandbox theme directly. The catch? It’s $15 USD a year for it.
