Not sure I understand by "before header", can you post a screenshot where you need it

Well, there are some tricks. Generally I suggest to load some examples from the Samples section, and study how it is done. Here's few tricks:

1) some sites simply use header for such a purpose, and what you think is a header, is normal sheet cell. So in the example you posted, Apex Telecom is part of the header, and the image under it, is regular part of the sheet

2) make it part of the background

3) make it a special effect. You can insert texture, glare from file, in the case of header, and light effect, in the case of the background. Maybe you could use even menu for the similar trick

4) if artisteer would not contain stupid limitations, as e.g. limiting the negative offset of the sheet, you could shift the sheet to -xyz offset, and use a regular cell to get your image there.

5) use custom CSS you can add to your site directly in artisteer. Insert the tag to some cell, and style it so that it appears exactly where you need it. But you would have to do it on every page, or use footer section, as html for header can't be edited directly in Artisteer.

6) use the postprocessing script. I use REBOL language, which is king on parsing, and as I did some similar stuff in the past, I think of making a general tool, called Fixateer, which will have simple dialect to find/replace/remove stuff. So after export, I just run one command, and it fixes the stuff for me, and sends the result to the browser.

I think what he means Garry is that in v4 when you add a logo, the slideshow hides it by overlayering it, when IMHO, the logo should overlayer the slideshow.

I've been adding revolving header image for ages on my Artisteer v2/v3 templated sites using a Dynamic Drive fade slideshow .js and then making the logo/textbox float over the top by adding something like:

<div class="art-textblock" style="z-index: 180;"> </div>
<div class="art-headerobject" style="z-index: 181;"></div>
<div class="art-logo" style="z-index: 182;">

All nicely stacked in order - works for me. I also add FB, Skype and Twitter buttons that way too.

I've tried the slideshow function in v4, I'll see if I can tweak the css easily. If not, I'll revert to the DD script.
