Calling All Wordpress Experts Help Needed!

I am in the process of making the switch from Blogger to Wordpress I have imported all of my blog posts to wordpress.

The problem I am having is in the Wordpress control panel its a bit confusing compared to bloggers. I have about 3 questions that I need help with!

1. How do you customize your header? How do you get to it for that matter?

2. How do you add html for advertisements in your blogs sidebar? I do not see that option anywhere in the Wordpress control panel. I would imagine it would be a widget of some sort, but I am new to Wordpress so I still have to figure things out!

3. As far as duplicate content is concerned should I do a 301 redirect if possible from blogspot to wordpress? What is my best option to go about this?

Any other useful tidbits that I left out that you feel would benefit me? Add your suggestions. And thanks in advance for the advice!

    Here are two answers I can give you:

    1. To change your header, you need to upload a new header image to your hosting. Upload it to the same place as your current header image and give it the same name. That way you don't need to make any changes to the code.

    2. Use a textwidget to add html-code.

    3. can't answer this one. I don't have any experience with change from blogger to wordpress.

    1 & 2. You will see a link 'Editor' on your left menubar in adminpanel.
    It opens up the template files. Modify them.

    3. Leave your content on blogger.com. Just a keep a note on it that your blog moved to so and so url.
