Hello all I really hope you can help me.
I've recently switched from Drupal to Atahualpa 3 Wordpress.

It currently looks like this: www.beauty-in-love.com/wordpress
I literally just managed to change the banner... great start!

The final idea, is that I need it to look like this:


This is what it looks like right now on Drupal.

To break it down, first of all, I would like to know if it is possible to replace the menu bar with image links, and if it can be repositioned, so that it is overlaying on the header banner as shown in the above screenshot.

Secondly, I would also appreciate it if someone could tell me how I could reposition the search bar, so that it is inside the right side bar instead.

If anyone is willing to provide help and assistance for me, I would be extremely grateful, and will gladly donate very generously.

Thank you for your time.

yes you can make a menu with images. Instead of using the %pages in the header configuration, you can substitute HTML. So you can code the html (or even steal it from eh existing page) and put it there. If you put it in a <div id="mymenu">...</div> you could then use CSS to position it where you want

check out the 'Search' widget that you can add to the sidebar

Excellent, I tried to work on it.. and I'm not exactly sure what I did but it seems to have worked.
Thank you!
