The column_left.php and column_right.php contain the infoboxes respectively. The boxes themselve's are defined within the files you'll find in your includes/boxes folder. Its within these file, for example information.php where you will make your changes.

Thanks Tina:

That info will be helpful when i"m ready to update these files. What I'm trying to do is the area between left column.php and right Column.php. Specially the table that hold "Welcome guest.... would you like to create an account... text. I am trying to add an image to the side of this text. Anybody got any suggestions?

Ok, that text and any text, labels etc. that appear on any of the pages within your shopping cart are always stored in language files which can be found in includes/languages/english/... The same applies for the other languages as well, just substitute english for the other languages, however I assume at least for the immediate you are concerned with english. If you look in that folder you'll find many files that mirror the names of files found in your stores home folder, that's where the text is defined for the particular page in question. So the long answer to your question is you are working on the index.php file, so to change the text that appears there, go to includes/languages/english/index.php

Tina Thanks Again!

I,ve got layout for TEXT_Main file in place but i'm running into two other issues which are probably minor, I just cannot figure them out. I'm new to php. I created image placeholders and load images into images file but they do not show up inplaceholders and how do I get rid of Welcome Guest!...... line that appears at top of page. I moved it into reconfiguration of TEXT_Main in includes/languages/english/index.php? Welcome line it now appearing twice.

OK I got the pictures to load. I just need to eliminate the Welcome guest. Would you like to log in line that appears above TEXT_MAIN area in the index.php file. Help anybody?
