<div ="xg_masthead"></div>

The Ning database isn't letting me write in regular html

#xg_masthead {
margin:0 auto;
width:500px;
}

Hey David, this is the code I would use to center the header on this page. I got the width from the image width, but the header box the image is in didn't have a width so the image by default goes all the way to the left. By setting the width size on the box the image is in, then center the box using the margin: 0 auto;.

The #xg_masthead is the name that the developers gave the box. the # means that it's an id. The box would look something like this; .
You can see this code and know were it is on the page by using Firefox browser and installing the addon FireBug. There are a zillion tutorials on how to use this thing. just google firebug video tutorials. Then you can really start to customize your page.
