Thanks for all your support!

1. You need to add a new attribute to the style sheet. Something like
HTML Code:
#leftnav a:hover
{
color: #000000;
background-color: #CC0000;
}
1. Paste that code into the style sheet and this will add a hover effect to the left nav. I'd really recommend you go to w3schools.com and learn the basics of CSS because it will teach you how to build on what I've already done and do more custom things with the style sheet.
I purposely did not make the template just like my SBI! site because I didn't want to just give out my exact site design to everyone. So I purposely made it very basic so people can pick up the basics of CSS and learn on their own. That's how I learned CSS. I would find sites with basic templates and go to sites like w3schools.com and learn more attributes.
2. Add
HTML Code:
{ background-color: #000000; }
to the style sheet. This will also change the background color of the main content area because I didn't specify one. So you'll need to add a color attribute to the #content section of the style sheet so it won't be the same as the background.
I'm going to see if you can figure it out by playing around with the style sheet OK? Really study that CSS file and notice how each section is given attributes then those sections are called up on the index.html file
3. Dreamweaver
4. I subscribe to Photos.com but I know
http://www.sxc.hu/ has some free stock photos'
5. I'm going to let you decide that. I can't answer that for you because I don't know what you know about the topic. Both are good but you have to decide what you're most comfortable with.
Good luck! Spend some time studying that style sheet and the index.html file to see how I was able to make certain things happen. That's the best way to learn how CSS works (in addition to visiting w3schools.com) CSS is so powerful and it's amazing what you can do when you learn how it works. Don't forget to watch my video too.
I know it may seem overwhelming at first but remember, I had no experience with CSS and I was self taught. So if I can do it so can you!
Making a new site?
But in all seriousness this certainly can work. Start doing some keyword research with the Google adwords tool to see if there are any kind of specific arm-building related keywords that are searched for.
