Sorry My Blog Looks So Freakish

I got a wild hair to do a little "redecorating" here on the old blog, and given my limited ability with that sort of thing, I'm a little stuck. I was sick of the damask border (it's my pattern, really, but it was just too much here) and wanted everything to stretch across the screen. Thus the boring template. Now I'm trying to fiddle with the header, and my image just doesn't want to load. I suspect this has to do with my insanely slow internet connection. So for now, the boys-on-the-table are off-center and I get to grumble at AT&T.

Any suggestions? I'm open and willing to listen to any idea, no matter how ridiculous. Many of you know much, much more than I, so please share.

Thank you. Now I'm off to, you know, have a life.

Yeah, that's what my damask border was. I'm happy with my template and background. I just want a better-looking header. And that's where I am afraid I'm out of my league.

When you add your picture make sure you check the "fit to..." box. That might help.

I like the green! Very spring and I need all the spring I can get!

The only thing I know about headers is that they have x numbers of pixels. Yours is maybe 940? So whatever that number is maybe you can reformat your picture to fit that same px length? Good luck! Like the green.

You should create a header on scrapblog.com it's the coolest website ever!

Didn't see your blog before, but I like the green. Maybe try eliminating the yellow border (make it the same shade of green), then the photo won't look like it isn't fitting in the border. You have such cute kids!
