Re: customize sidebar

Sure. On the "Customize Your theme" page there should be a sidebar thing with links that start with "Display." At step 3 you clicked the "Custom CSS" (the last link on that sidebar) to paste the main layout codes in. The link above the "Custom CSS" link is "Link List." Above that is the link called "Sidebar." Click that. Once there there should be a section with all these "Yes" or "No" drop-down menus. All the menus should be set for "No" instead of the "Show the blurb/free text in the sidebar?" which should be "Yes." The "Title of the blurb sidebar box" should be blank. The large box below that is where you post the sidebar code I provided, or you can just type in your own text.

Here's the sidebar I'm talking about that's in "Customize Your Theme"
