Message on 'Create Account' page

Hi. I was also looking for the fast checkout option being discussed here. As it isn't available, and everything else about the cart is excellent, I'd like to change the message where new users create an account to offer an incentive for signing up.

Also, is it possible to have a small image an some text on the white area/ space below the create acount / login boxes to promote this incentive?

I'm not very techy but can change code if I know where to look

Thanks in advance,

TessaRose

May be you need to look here to change the HTML

upload\catalog\view\theme\default\template\account\create.tpl

Thanks zeevy.... I'll give that a try. Hope I don't break anything!

UPDATE: Yep, I broke it. Need to reinstall. Thanks anyway ... my fault.

Here's a small coding tip for personal 'version control'...
When playing with files... always make a copy... name it originalproductnameBAK.tpl and then work on the original.
If you make a mistake you can quickly revert.
Another method is originalfilename090725.tpl when you have several progressive edits that you don't want to lose.
Put your own spin on it, but make sure you copy the file before working on it.
