Changing the design of a template through the CSS - tip

Folks,

You'll forgive me in advance for my obsession with design! And, for those of you already familiar with this little nugget of wisdom, I do not claim to be a wise man - or a nugget.

I am currently working hard to understand how to easily change a design within templates. Eventually to create new templates, or to simply (and drastically) change existing templates. I discovered something that drove me crazy for awhile. Now I am a much happier designer. Again, some of you may already know this...

Hi folks,

I just discovered an odd occurrence and a fix if you are using the Giordani theme. This theme uses a very cool rotating banner at the top of every page. So, each time you navigate to a new page, new images show-up depending on what images are in the theme folder img/banners/ directory. However, the images do not show up in IE 6. The solution is to change two areas.

1) In the Giordani theme folder, you need to change the name of the banners/ directory to anything other than banners/. This is because Kaspersky firewall program in IE6 blocks the word "banners." Why? Who knows?
