Thread: adding long text to a template

I'm new at this web building and have learned a lot from this forum already and I'm sure I'll be back with more questions. But, I have a question regarding adding text to a template. Specially, long text. I downloaded a template that has both a header and footer, as well as some graphics on the left hand side.

When I extend the template tall enough to fit in the text I'm trying to insert, the entire template stays proportional with the height I'm making the template. This dramatically distorts the header and side graphics. Is there a way to make a tall template, but have the header stay the original size thus not distorting the graphics in the header?

Thanks,

Hi there ... you could chop-crop your template in photoshop or another image altering program you have - and then insert it as two images separately .... header and footer ... you could apply a shape in the middle or simple leave as the background of your page ....

Thanks LadyEye, I've found your posts to be very helpful. I'll try these things and let you know how it goes.

Thanks again,
