Help!

The lovely and talented [profile] always_jbj has made a gorgeous banner for me to use on my LJ (see yummy icon for preview), but I haven't got the foggiest idea how to put it up. :( Can anyone more knowledgeable than me possibly walk me through it? Pretty please?

Update: Woohoo! Got it to work!

Check my memories page. I've got a couple of banner tutorials saved. You'll have to do a custom CSS and that's really hard to explain in a reply post, but the turtorials make it a lot easier. :)

... and once again, I proved I am the Typo Queen. Sheesh. I meant tutorials in the last sentence, of course.

Not sure if this will make it any easier or not, but LJ have just introduced a new 'easy' customisation area. http://www.livejournal.com/betafeatures.bml

It looks fabulous, sweetie! I am so glad you are happy with it.

LOL I just changed my layout too, have had a Buffy banner up for months and I decided that I missed my vamp.
