    First off, the Artfull theme is fantastic, thanks Milo great work.
    now for my question, the news widget, is there a way to make it "not" just the last three posts? can I make it three completely different things?

    News code:
    you may need to edit the php code in order to show more items,
    open s_footer.php at wp-content/artfull/inc/ and search for this line:
    showposts=3&offset=1
    showposts indicates the number of shown post, change to your likings.

    Widgets:

    thanks for the speedy response, I did figure out how to turn it off, put something else there...doi...guess the theme is too intuitive for me, I'm used to things being much harder than your making it...thanks again for the great themes!

    tho, if I did want to use the news widget again, is there a way to make it call for articles that maybe don't appear anywhere else?

    Articles from other sources? External?

    hmm...not really external (tho that would be useful too) what I'm looking for is a way to make the three "articles" on the front to stay there all the time, but I thought about using the news widget as a way to add changing articles as well...so I guess I'm looking to make posts, that ONLY show up in the news widget, and don't appear on the front page... did that make sense? :)

    Give the 3 articles own cats like front1, front2, front3,
    asign it in the options,
    then only those posts will show up there,

    New widget works the same:
    each of your cats has own feed,
    see it here 3oneseven.com/topic/design/feed
    url structure is like this:
    yoursite.com/category/categoryname/feed
    then use the rss widget, copy your news cat feed
    and asign it.

    I'm baaaack, with another question..
    my site using your fantastic theme is all up and running, my lazy question for you is, the three boxes on the front page, is there an easy-ish way to have six of those?

    site> http://www.belltownartwalk.com (if it's propagated)
    (if not) http://www.bedlamite.com/bawm

    well, I know what doesn't work...tried making a post stick to the front, wow, suddenly one post was tripled and another one (not made sticky) was duplicated, the result was like 12 items on the front page...

    You mean six boxes as 3 per row and 2 rows?

    Possible, you have to duplicate the php calls in home php like this
    ...
    <div id="frontleft">
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/inc/article4.php");?>
    </div>

    <div id="frontmid">
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/inc/article5.php");?>
    </div>

    <div id="frontright">
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/inc/article6.php");?>
    </div>

    of course you have to duplicate article php one to 3
    to article4.php, article5.php and article6.php,
    then adjust the wordpress loop in each template
    like this
    article4.php
    php query_posts('showposts=1&offset=3'); ?

    article5.php
    php query_posts('showposts=1&offset=4'); ?

    article6.php
    php query_posts('showposts=1&offset=5'); ?

    Yes, I suggest to make a test domain (subdomain) and send me login details, so I can fix it and show you howto.

    the only thing I'm really snagged on is, how to keep, front 1 2 and 3 to stay in that first row, and how to remove the category list that occurs under the "art is everywhere..." line other than that, I love this theme! the non test site is at http://www.belltownartwalk.com (looks a little cluttered at the moment :P )

    well, I figured most of it out, still can't locate the code I need to remove to get that list of categories off the front page, under the page tabs...

    Thanks for your help, I've been such a great pest...

    Category nav remove:

    open header php, search for line 97
    and remove the php include
    ?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/inc/categories.php'); ?
    that will remove the cat nav completely,
    to show cat nav on all other pages except the front you need to make this:

    <?php if ( (is_home()) ) { ?>
    <div id="navbar"></div>
    <?php } else { ?>
    <div id="navbar">
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/inc/navbar.php'); ?>
    </div>
    <?php } ?>
