Hey, I am quite new to Rapidweaver. I consider it to be a great app to build your own website, however, I am quite a bit lost about how to modify the themes you got by Rapidweaver. For example, is there any option to change the image of the header or to make the head transparent? Thanks in advance! 😀

What’s more [this week’s podcast (#7)](http://rapidweavercommunity.com/podcasts/the-rapidweaver-show/7) covered this too. Good luck!

You’re very welcome, Franz!

And welcome to _RapidWeaver_ 🙂

Each Theme is different. Headers are actually one of the more specialized things to do. But simple once you’re familiar with the way _RW_ works.

Ben and Dan of RealMac explain the main things that you might want to try first in the podcast; I’d start there if I were you. Try changing a font or two; some colours.

Do feel free to come back here with the Theme you’re working with. Someone is sure to be able to help. Good luck!
