Do I need to know HTML if I use a blank template? Is there someone who helps with this, I would gladly pay a fee. Thanks
If you use the blank template, you don't necessarily have to know HTML -- but if you would like to get started with it, please check out the following links:

Hi. Best way to use the blank template to advantage is to use a wysiwyg html editor like Frontpage or Dreamweaver or several cheaper versions out there like Coffee Cup Software to do your fonts, arranging, picture layouts etc. If you do not know any html, do your stuff in the html editor design/display mode, then access the html which the program will generate for you between the body tags, and paste it into the template. If you know some html there are lots of free places where you can preview your work as you work on it before you finalize it the way it will be in your listing.
If you want the effects html provides, you will need to learn enough to work with the html your editor program generates and make the changes if there is a mistake or correction needed. A blank template without any html will be a blank white page that looks like whatever you have in your regular template would look like without any html. Whatever you paste into the description box now with a regular template you can paste into the blank template--it just won't have anything else but what you paste in.
The blank templste loses some of the features vendio offers and you will need to do more of the work yourself. The blank template is ideal if you have custom template html and imbedded images you are willing to paste in every time. But it really is blank--you lose all the custom text box options, payment arrangement sections, etc--you have to generate all that yourself and paste it in each time with the rest (but once it is set up it is just a matter of copy and paste).

I need some advice:
My logo is a banner 1.5" x 5.5" and I want it at the top of my auction page. It's too large for the standard logo location found in the templates.
I want it to be
1)my banner
2)photos
3)description
Other than manually entering the photos into my html in a blank template - what are my options? When I select "image on top" the photo is placed above the banner even though the banner has the <html<head><title>
Is there a way to achieve this order while still using the ever-so-easy click & attach option for image insertion?
