Hi! I want a Wordpress blog with a simple layout similar to Indexhibit, for example, like this or this. I mean: a column on the left with an image header at the top and the menu above, and another column at the right with the content.

I know how to change colors, font sizes, fonts types, margins, paddings, etc, with CSS, but I don't know how to convert the default Thematic layout in the two column design that I want. Do you know if there is something done, a theme that I can take as a starting point to do this? Is Thematic a good choice for do this, or do you think that would be better to start simply from here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development and change the default Wordpress 3.0 theme, Twentyten?

Thanks for reading and excuse my inexperience with Thematic and with english language :-)

Thematic comes with a 2 column - right sidebar css template. Take a look inside /thematic/library/layouts

you could also remove the logo/title from the header and move it to thematic_above_mainasides. or you could CSS the header to the same width as the sidebar and float it?

Yes! It works writing this in CSS:
```
#header {
    width:300px;
    float:left;
    position:relative;
```
This helps me a lot. Now I have a good point to start. Thank you Helga.
