OK.... add it to WHAT? Where do I put the html markup? What do I add it to? How do I find the file that has the "copyright" line? You said:

If you could reply to this comment or send me an e-mail it would be great. Once again, great tutorial it worked perfectly for my theme's blog and now I want just to paint it a little, if you know I mean. Kind regards and I am waiting for a reply from your part! :-) The tutorial is wonderful, but I would like to know how to colorize the background where the widgets stand or how to add an image under them.

You're probably looking for the <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages" rel="nofollow">wp_list_pages</a> function or the "Pages" widget.

That should fix the problem. Hmm…seems I forgot to mention putting .clear { clear: both; } in your stylesheet.

I do have one question. Adding the widgets is not a problem but somehow he doesn't want to add a background to the whole footer. The part where the widgets are stays white with me.

Isn't that one of the files I'm not supposed to touch? Also -- what function call would I need in order to get a list of pages in each section of the website? I want a sort of "site map" footer, if you know what I mean (a horizontal list of top level links, each with its sub-pages listed below) Isn’t it a problem to just replace the contents of the functions.php file?
