Hey there

I did get your email, I have not had a chance to respond quite yet, between christmas and other shit I have just been slammed this week

I did get the impression when I read it though, that you just wanted me to show you how to do a few things, which I would be glad to do, but we don't need to take it to email to do it, you can just ask questions here in the forum and people will be glad to help

If I misread and you actually did want to compensate me for some sort of services, then I apologize, but I just didn't take it that way so I put a low priority on it because I am swamped with paying gigs right now

first thing you need to do is go to the FTP location of those files, which varies from user to user, but after you get into the wordpress directory is located at

/wp-content/themes/YOURTHEMENAME

CHMOD all those files to 777

now, go into your wordpress control panel and to PRESENTATION>THEME EDITOR

now go to Sidebar

there you will find all your sidebars

now look for things like

those are your sidebar contents, and each one will be about the same and a good theme will have them seperated for you, like this:

YOU WANT TO PUT YOUR CONTENT HERE, before or after the sidebar item

make sure it is the right sized banner or item, because if not, it will fuck up the formatting of the blog

Yes I am in a big mess I need help please go to my blog www.livecamblog.nudycam.com and check out the error message on a function or something on top of my header I thought it was that I edited the permissions on my files to 777 so I can edit the pages so after I edited I just put back the the pages to 666 but the error is still there I think one page was set to 664 but do not remember help.
