Question about themes

I like all the new themes you've been adding, this is really a great feature!

My question is about the theme Earth. All the themes work great on my website, but Earth. For some reason when I select the Earth theme, my heading disappears. Any reason why the Earth theme doesn't seem to work on my site.

Thanks!

    It's because of the z-index of the extra div. Your header is there it's just stacked behind the extra div. Simply add a z-index of 2 or more to your table using CSS and you'll be all set.

    :D You asked the question I was too embarrased to ask! I looked at Mike's answer and said "Huh?". Not your fault Mike, but I know just enough CSS to make me dangerous. I decided it just wasn't worth pursuing. And since all the other themes work great for my site, I'll just be happy with that!

    Here was Mike answer to me ... hope it works for u :D
    Again, BIG Thanks to Mike for the help thumb.gif

    Make your header look like this:
    <div id="my_header">
    <img src="http://put address of your header here" />
    </div>

    And add this to your CSS:
    #my_header {position:relative; z-index:2; text-align:center;}

    My banner is the background image for the page. I guess I'd have to change that for z-index to work. Correct?

    Your banner is the background image for the page? If so, you won't be able to change anything with the z-index property.

    That's what I thought. I was going to change it at one time, but since it wasn't broke, I decided not to do it. One day :):
