Right now I replaced welcome_picture.jpg with a different picture, but I want to name it "guitars-for-sale.jpg" and change the link from x-cart.com to a link on my site.

you need to change in welcome.tpl

Where? I don't see "welcome_picture.jpg" or an href around that says "http//www.x-cart.com" which is what firebug is telling me change.

Enter your admin zone, go to the 'Administration' menu, 'Webmaster mode' page. Click on 'Start webmaster mode' button.

See, that would work if it existed. It's actually in the admin section, under the menu item "tools."

I am going to be here for a few days, and I apologize in advance for my questions, but if I am starting a thread it's because I read the docs and found them inadequate.

You discovered a bug in the docs. I believe the menu item changed in version 4.5 and it has not been documented in all places. I took a look around and some references to webmaster mode have the correct path to the command - but other places in the docs are outdated. You could make a bug report and join the community.

Webmaster mode is going to be your BFF during your site development. Webmaster mode also will give you insight to variables and all template and langauge relationships. You are going to use it extensively.

Have fun.

Thanks a lot man, appreciate it and see you around.
