 * I have no idea what to do with these templates…
    How would I go about making 
   my blog look exactly how I want it to? Like, for example, say I want text saying“
   Hello.” on the right column above the links thing…how would I do that? The templates
   cannot really be edited much in Dreamweaver, as they are pretty much all dynamic,
   and you can’t really position stuff and whatnot. Thanks.

 * I recommend you start with the new WordPress Codex at [http://codex.wordpress.org/](http://codex.wordpress.org/)
   and poke around there to get started. There is a lot of help there, and it is
   growing every day. If you have a more specific question, then we can help.
 * The “column” is usually a sidebar, depending upon the theme you’ve chosen. To
   add text to the sidebar, open the `sidebar.php` template file and go to where
   you want the text to appear and type it in. I do recommend that you check out
   the [http://codex.wordpress.org/Styling_lists_with_CSS](http://codex.wordpress.org/Styling_lists_with_CSS)
   article that deals with a lot of the issues of the list in the sidebar to help
   you figure out what a lot of that means.
 * I only use a text editing software to do my work with WordPress, and avoid Dreamweaver
   and similar “DYI” and WYSIWYG programs as some can change the output to screw
   things up, but I’m not specifically familiar with Dreamweaver.
