    hi

    i,m new to templates and this site and any advice would be really appreciated.

    ive dowenloaded the world of warcraft template ,wiped the elf off and replaced it with a guild wars character and all is looking ok. http://www.baynham1.adsl24.co.uk/ but i want to build other pages with a different look.
    ive built up a page made out of the footer placed at the top then 2 main boxes both with the elf removed ,to make large text areas.

    i,m working in paintshop cs and dreamweaver .ive created a css file built into the page and to my limited knowledge it looks right.just a small amout of text . ive pasted it at the end of this message.
    my problem is i,m totally stumped as to how to enter text.when i try to do it with dreamweaver the whole image in that part of the page turns black.been on this for 2 days and could do with a pointer in the right direction.how can i add text directly into the code.

    or am i doing this completely wrong..

    cheers ..dirk.....code is below.
