- Open header.php and find out <div id=”slider”> and Edit the slider ( Default a vista logo)

Wow! Awesome work you do on theme creation! You are a definite must-add to my resource list!
The only think I would add to this particular theme (Gadgets plus) is a navigation bar across the top, below the header.
But that’s just me.
I like that kind of thing.
Keep up the EXCELLENT WORK!
