Hi

On my main page I have my bio. It is arranged with a photo of a mountain on the left and the text to the side of the picture (starts 'my story').

Now, I would like to create a new gallery and I want it to look EXACTLY like this (my bio). The reason why is that I am about to change my bio, but I want to keep the current Bio and photo on a separate gallery WITHOUT ANY OTHER PHOTOS.

So, basically I want a new gallery page to look exactly as my CURRENT homepage (excluding the featured galleries and gallery categories).

How do I do this?

Thanks VERY much

A zillion times :D

YOU MUST use <html> and </html> at the beginning and end of such a description.

I've fixed it for you. :deal
