    Download the Advanced User Guide from www.actinic.co.uk I am sure it's in the start of that document.

      I have had a look through the advance user guide but still uncertain where the section pages are built from?

        Code:
        Changing the Appearance of Section Links
        
        The following exercise will change the section link template so that the section image is centered above the section name and description.
        1.	Go to 'Design | Options | Layout' and click 'Edit' next to 'Default Section Link Layout'.
        2.	First, go to line 5 and find the line that reads 
        <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="10">
        3.	Add WIDTH=250 into the tag
        It should now read:
        <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="10" WIDTH=250>
        4.	Next, go to line 9 and locate the line
        <TD ROWSPAN="2" ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN="TOP">
        5.	Remove the parameter ROWSPAN="2" and replace ALIGN=LEFT with ALIGN=CENTER
        The line should now read <TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN="TOP">
        6.	Now, in line 13 locate the line that reads 
        <TD ALIGN="LEFT" VALIGN="MIDDLE">
        7.	Change it to read
        </TR><TR><TD ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP">
        8.	Save the template. Ensure that when saving, you change 'Save as type' to 'All Files' rather than 'Text Documents'
        9.	Finally, in 'Design Options | Sections', change both the 'First Row Column Count' and the 'Subsequent Row Column Count' to '2'.
        10.	Preview your catalog to see the effect

              Hmm, I done that but it does actually put the descriptive text below the section image....

              <!-- SectionLine HTML begin -->
              <!-- Insert HTML for the beginning of a section title -->

              <DIV ALIGN="CENTER">

              <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="50" CELLPADDING="10" WIDTH=250>

              <TR>

              <TD ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP">
              <A HREF="NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONLINK">NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONIMAGE</A>
              </TD>


              <TD ALIGN="LEFT" VALIGN="TOP">
              <A HREF="NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONLINK"><B>NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONNAME</B></A>
              <br><span class="actxsmall">NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTEXT</span>
              </TD>

              </TR>

              </TABLE>

              </DIV>
              NETQUOTEVAR:NEXT
              <!-- Insert HTML for the end of a section title -->
              <!-- SectionLine HTML end -->

                Yes, you have to comment that out by changing the first and last tags so it reads

                <!-- br>.......</span -->
