How to Edit the Kubrick WordPress Theme
In the following videos I demonstrate how to edit the default, Kubrick WordPress theme using Photoshop. The first video covers the various images used in Kubrick and shows where and how they are used…parts 2 and 3 demonstrate how to edit those images and make some basic css adjustments to accommodate your changes. I demonstrate how to:
1. Create a custom header
2. Customize the footer and background
3. Change the color of the background or add a repeating background graphic
4. Remove the blog title and tagline from displaying over the custom header
5. Make the header clickable
The Kubrick psd (Photoshop) file I use in the videos is available for download here:

This was a great tutorial and I wouldn’t have been able to revamp my site without it
But two things: the way to make the header clickable only worked in Firefox and not explorer so I ended up using a variation on the code edit that I found in in the WordPress faq http://tiny.cc/CmT0C . Also, I got a flash of the old blue header which was a nightmare to fix but it was solved (again) thanks to the WordPress folks http://tiny.cc/dkB3G
Again, great tutorial!
Great stuff, Figaro. Thank you so much. It made my day.
I’ve been trying to improve things though, using Flashfader plugin in WP 2.9.2. Inserted the code in header.php and it worked (FF does) – but not through the header. code is:
Is there a place where this should be included that you can suggest?
Thanks again – even without fading images, it’s great.
