How to edit the "About" tab ?

    Hello,
    I'm having a problem here with the "about" tab, bottom left of the main page.
    When one presses it, a page opens on "Archives content" and random posts appear one after the other. I have not found, so far (and the WordPress video "Add an "about" (or any static) page" did not help in this instance.), how to edit this tab and make it a link to a presentation page. Could anyone guide me?

    Moreover, this is a different question, but I'd like to clear off all of the links I do not want to figure on a page, at the bottom of it: syllabus, archives, categories, most recent/most read... How could I do this?

    Thank you for any advice !

    The blog I need help with is feministalternativemagazine.com.

    I'm not seeing either of these. Did you figure things out, or are you talking about a different blog?

    No, no, that's the one ! But I've manage to rearrange things, even though it is not through the way I imagined it would be... Concretely: have you (or anyone else) tried the "about.me" widget? And if you have, how is it? How does it work?...
    Last thing I haven't managed by myself: I'd like to change the way the title is presented by putting a logo I have designed with Ps... I have no idea how to do that!! Do you / Does someone know how??
    Thank you for repplying (and for the previous one!)

    As for the second question, DePo Masthead doesn't support header images: to replace the title with a logo you'd need the Custom Design upgrade.

    Thanks people !
    And justpi, that's bad news for me... But thank you for your intervention, I probably would never have guessed.

    I'd like to change the way the title is presented by putting a logo I have designed with Ps... I have no idea how to do that!!

    Here's an example showing how to add a logo to the Sight theme's title with CSS if you're interested. To see it work, add it to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor and click the Preview button:

    .site-title a {
	background: url(http://s.wordpress.org/about/images/wordpress-logo-notext-bg.png) -35px -5px no-repeat;
	padding-left: 110px;
}

    To use a different logo, change out the url() value with a link to your logo image and adjust all of the numbers until your image is placed correctly.
