Hello Amir,

I have with interest and curiosity been reading this thread, and some of 
the other questions you have asked. And I want to give you some advices. 
I have about 25 years of experience in IT, but are really new to the Typo3 
world. And I'm not any programmer or IT-guru. Here are my advices.

1. Don't expect to graduate from university the same day as you start in 
first class. Every complicated system (and an enterprise CMS as Typo3 is 
complicated) takes time to learn - often a lot of time, and most of that 
time is reading and trying. And as many here has pinpointed, ask your question 
when you have read and tried (at least two times). Because then you learn. 
I suppose you play strategy games. Then I wonder how many hours you have 
used to be good in those games. To master Typo3 (or any other advanced CMS) 
I suppose you have to use much of the same time - and maybe more.

2. If others behave rude to me - my lifelong experience tells me it's because 
I'm not polite and listen to others.

3. If people tell you it's explained in the tutorials, then it's explained 
in the tutorials. And they don't tell you because they don't want to answer, 
but because it's the best answer. On every question you have asked I have 
found the answer in different tutorials and documentation (or in the list, 
faq or google).

And your questions don't make it easy to answer. Or let me say it in other 
words. On your question I can't give other answer than read the FTB - manual, 
not only read it, but do it. And then try to make a site with simple design, 
and then one with more sophisticated design. It's the only way to master 
Typo3, belive me - I have gone that way. And I can also tell you following, 
looking at your reedesign template, I know today how I would implement it.


WBR,
