    I think that's a matter of opinion. :)

    The fact is the article tells how to place a "clickable" logo at the top of your blog that links to the front page. There certainly are easier ways to just place an image at the top without the h1 tags.

    Yes I have gone thru that but still that is using the logo in the background and we have to delete the header I tried that...

    I want a header and desc for my site as well as an image logo like other sites is that possible???

    ????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    the article never suggests that you delete anything......

    Do I understand that you want the logo at the top of your blog the way it is, only you want it to link to the front page of your blog?

    Go back to my site and look at my logo. You'll notice that the logo links to the front page. My H1 title and description are still present in the code, they just aren't visible. Is this not how you want yours?

    Mine was done using the exact same method I explain in my article.

    Peace

    *That's exactly the way mine does*. The fact that it's listed in the code as a background image is the correct way that it's done. The span tags that are set cause the background image to cover up the actual text title, but the link is still active.....it's called the Gilder/Levin method of image replacement.
