But.....
Just can't get it up in the theme xtemplate.

Greetings.

It seams that themes do not work anymore on my site. You can see it by yourself at:

http://site.deragon.biz/drupal

It worked initially, then I installed the polder theme which had some problems. I removed it and still the Marvin theme (which my site is set at) does not show up properly. Anybody got a clue?

Sincerely,

Hi everyone, I have a BG Image on my site and I would like to be able to see it through the tables...ie have the tables basically be clear or colorless I am using the polder theme and have tried serval different ways to of doing it but no luck as of yet if I try and blank it it keeps getting set back to the "default"...If anyone knows how to do this I would appreciate any help...basically I just want to keep the placement of my blocks and such and have it look like the words are just over the image...sticking with the polder theme isn't a must but any way of doing this would be awesome...Th

I am almost there. I want to customize how blocks are displayed, but i can nopt find where they are layed out. Does any one know? Where is that function for how a block is displayed?

I'm just getting started with Drupal, and so I hope this isn't a naive question. I am attempting to use Drupal as a CMS to manage my site content [www.rout.ca/news].

In the theme "adc" the blocks, both left and right load first and the contents then. This is very good if the article is very long, it renders beatifully.

In the excellent xtemplate theme the the contents loads after the left block whereafter the right block is loaded, doesn't look good if the node is long and the right block is missing for the time it takes for the page to load, them wham.
