from a WSS newbie, what is the best way to customize the look and navigation of a WSS site?  I have created a .html page complete with the images and layouts that I want, but I am at a loss as to the best way to apply it to my WSS site (hosted on re-invent of course).  Use Templates? Use Themes?  else???

thanks in advance, Kevin

Update: I have been to numerous web sites and purchased a couple of books on SPS/WSS customization.  It appears that you can't connect themes, templates and dynamic web templates.  So if you chose to use DWTs (like I did) and can't attach these DWTs to WSS so that any newly created pages by WSS (like if a user creates a new doc library) will contain the typical MS theme.  I have not found a way to duplicate the theme and DWTs without a ton of coding. 

Any advice?
