An introduction: Hi there. My name is Jim Ramsey and I'm the Director of Design for TypePad. I've started this blog to share tips and ideas about creating a great-looking blog.

Just add the CSS below into the Custom CSS form in TypePad and change the colors to the ones you want to use. #banner { background: #7a9d5d; border-bottom: 1px solid #6e8d54; } /* 'background' is the background color for the banner. The example I've used...
