For customizing the appearance of your site, you would use the Theme Editor; you can click the "Load" button next to any public theme at http://www.mmoguildsites.com/themes and it will load the theme into our Theme Editor and allow you to customize it.

To change the Navigation Menu Items appearance, left click on the main menu and go to the Image submenu, and then choose some graphics to upload; you should see the changes reflect in the live preview right away; if it is your first time using the Theme Editor, perhaps try changing the banner first, as it is just one image and will be easier.

The Navigation Menu Items are broken up into 3 images, the left side, the right side and the middle image; the middle image is repeated to fill the space of the image; to use an image with it you would want to cut it up into the three parts first; you can check out some of the existing public themes that have graphic buttons for the navigation menu items to see how it is done.

The DKP section is called Raids and is available at http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/raids. There is also a main menu item you can enable in the Navigation tab to provide a direct link to it.

Raid Sign-ups is handled in the Calendar, by creating participation events, which I see you made one of here - http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/events/27204. This allows you to have members sign-up for an event, and pre-plan who might be available and what groups you can form. You can drag-and-drop the available participants into groups to organize them here also. There is also a Next Raid block you can add to your site as a side block, which will read the next Participation event and show the participants and allow members to sign-up right from the side block, which can make it easier than members having to check the calendar.

Once a raid has happened, then you want to record the DKP, which happens in the Raids section - http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/raids. To do this you would create a New Raid, choose whether you are using a normal DKP system or zero-sum DKP. Then you would be redirected to the Edit Raid form where you can add the attendees, boss kills, items, hours and any adjustments you may want. A raid summary is shown below with all the data you have entered, and all the data is entered with AJAX so no page refresh is necessary, making it pretty fast to work with =)

Once you have finished entering a raid, you can view the overall standings for your guild at http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/raids/standings and you can view a history of items that dropped at http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/raid_items

Once you have at least one raid entered into your site, a "DKP Stats" tab will also appear in your member profiles and your character profiles (ie here - http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/members/45498 and here - http://prideandpassion.mmoguildsites.net/characters/45922 - a DKP Stats tab would also be shown, if at least one raid has been added to your site). This allows you to browse individual members and characters dkp stats.

To simplify adding raids, you can also create Raid Templates, linked at the bottom of the raids page, if you are using a normal DKP system (zero-sum does not need templates). A Raid Template allows you to add all the boss events and default dkp values for a raid, so when you create a raid from it those values and events will be pre-populated, which can save time if you raid dungeons multiple times.
