    I’m not seeing it. Perhaps you could post a screen shot?

    Do you mean a “header image”? What size and format is the image you are trying to upload?

    BTW, the link in your profile name has two letters transposed: http://balancedhelathsa.com/ instead of http://balancedhealthsa.com/

    To change the topic…

    Aaarrgghhhh…better to start a new thread. It makes it easier for other people to find information in here.

    And, now I seem to have somehow lost the fabulous post sliding element as well.

    Graphene Options >> Slider Options >> untick the box that’s marked “Disable Slider” — be sure to click “Save Options” at the bottom of the page.

    About “Home” and “About Me” — just use a custom menu. If you don’t start using one now, you probably will want to eventually (they are easy and add all sorts of possibilities to your blog). Here’s a good tutorial: http://blog.kjodle.net/2011/08/25/how-to-create-and-use-custom-menus-in-wordpress/

    Good luck, and welcome aboard

    Okay, you can do that with the CSS code we mentioned earlier. Try adding something like

    background: url('http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac319/zealforadeal/orangedotnew.gif') left no-repeat; padding-left:18px;

    May require a bit of tweaking, but should work.

    BTW, you might want to use a .png image instead of .gif. They seem to support transparency a bit better.

    Also, you can just upload your image to the WordPress Media Gallery and use the link provided there. Might improve your site’s speed a nanosecond or two.

    Although it’s pretty overwhelming to see all the errors that come back. I’m guessing most are for elements that I don’t actually need for my specific site.

    Actually, that validator only goes through CSS 2.1, so it flags a lot of CSS 3 properties. Errors that are flagged as “doesn’t exist” or “Too many values or values are not recognized” aren’t necessarily CSS 3 errors.

    As for your other query, that is something I have never encountered. It’s definitely a Blogger thing. There may be/probably is a WordPress equivalent, but we would need to see what that code actually does to figure it out.

    Yes, I love Trek. But it’s gone downhill in recent years….

    It’s this line:

    .entry-content, .entry-content p, .slider_post_entry p,
    .entry-content ul, .entry-content ol, .comment-entry ol{
    line-height: 22px;

    An admittedly rushed tutorial for Kalin’s Post List is here: http://blog.kjodle.net/2011/10/30/kalins-post-list-a-brief-tutorial/

    You may find part 6 to be especially interesting.

    You can try running your stylesheet through a CSS validator, such as http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ to identify problems like this. Saves a lot of headaches.
