The way a web site server works is when you are in the browsers address line and you enter your domain - i.e. yourdomain.com the server uses a file called index.html or index.php or index.asp etc... What ever it is though there can only be one (index.htm or index.html will always load first if there is more than one index file) this is the file for your home page.
The Product Catalog Manager though is installed in a directory called catalog which has another index file in it and this serves as your catalogs home page.
That is why when someone visits your catalog the address line will read
http://yourdomain.com/catalog/ and your catalog loads.
Some servers though are set to redirect a user to this directory automatically, so when a user enters -
http://yourdomain.com it will automatically switch the user to
http://yourdomain.com/catalog/ If your site is set up to do this then you can not take the header graphic off of just one page in your catalog.
To use a different home page for the catalog the server home page redirect must be removed. Call your server provider and ask them how to do this.
Then create a new index file in the top directory of your server using what ever design you wish - just remember to add a link to your catalog or a user will not be able to get to it.
