You need to edit 2 files in particular and look in the directory below

 

catalog/index.php

 

and catalog/includes/languages/xxxx.php and

catalog/includes/languages/xxxx/*.php

 

Where xxxx is the language you are using - The changes you make in these files will allow you to customise the text on your home page - as well as the width of the pages

 

You will further customise the home page by shifting infoboxes around using catalog/includes/column_left.php and column_right.php

 

You may also at some point want to create new infoboxes and you will find how to do this on the kb.

 

As you can see many avenues to explore

Your logo is in includes/header.php

 

The text which appears below 'Welcome Guest' etc. you'll find in includes/languages/english/index.php

 

The 'Welcome Guest' text you'll find in includes/languages/english.php

 

The width of the left and right columns are set in includes/application_top.php

 

That should be enough to get you started.
