put it into an html-nugget! make a link out of it:

<a href="http://www.broadway-dance.it/index.php? ... actform</a>

contactorm in the sidebar menu

will surely work that way. i bet the creative commons "stuff" will be best in a nugget as well.
danke!!!

Renata, you can put all sorts of things into an html nugget. I personally find the sidebars very crowded, and I have started to move the login and quicksearch out into the header of the theme (andreas08). Why not put the creative commons into the footer text, just leave out the image. Then you'll have more space in the sidebar to increase the size of the flicker plugin or advertising etc.

One other suggestion is to put the login-link into the footer. usually this is usefull only for the author but never for the readers. so why not place it at some unspectacular place?

I did it here: www.scbayer.hohle-phrasen.de

its in the footer

Good piont Marc, maybe I should have thought of that myself. By the way, is your ski site using a modified k2 from Wordpress? If so you should think about releasing the original port.

Cheers

Carl

login in the footer

i just have to think how to do it, and it will be done. thanks for sharing this with me. the ski-site is nice, btw, i like the to-the-point design.

its basically the Kubrick theme with the added ski pictures in the header.

Its just that before the header image came through it looked like k2, and I know they're similar but... maybe I've been spending too much time theming and my brain has turned to jelly
