My web site is "under development", it really is. Just purchased the latest version from download. All answers will be greatly appreciated.

My question (separate post for 2nd question)
I want to add a LOGO to all of my pages and possibly use the same LOGO in as a background on each page. Should I just "add an image" and then add it to the web pages or can I add it to the "index" page to have it appear on all of my developed and developing pages? I have not uploaded to my web site yet. Wanted to do this part correctly.
Thanks in advance

All pages can be duplicated, including a page that has a logo on it. Go to 'add page', tick 'duplicate page' and then choose a page that has your logo on it (and maybe some other objects that you want to place every time on each page).

Thanks for your reply
re Duplicating pages.

Will this work with pages that are already created but not uploaded? I have text only pages and I want to add a LOGO and a background image (actually the same LOGO but larger and much lighter in color).

I do not want to destroy what is already created and to make the page too slow to view.

If you already have pages with text on it, then make new empty pages with your logo on it, then copy the text object to this new page and then delete the text-only page. Don't worry about uploaded or not-uploaded pages..

I wouldn't advise you to use your logo as a background image on a page, if you are worried about upload time. Let's suppose your page width is 950 pixels, your page height is 700 pixels. To fill the background with a 'watermark' logo, it should have the same dimensions, and thus take about 175 Kb if it's a complex picture with lots of information and 50 Kb if it's a simple picture. A small logo, 150 * 100 pixels is no more than 10 Kb: nothing to worry about. A single color as background is 0 (zero) Kb! If you use a gradient this would be 1 Kb.
