I found some tutorials online but I'm afraid to start messing with Montezuma as it's not a "pure" theme. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

yup, create a test site and experiment then let us know how to do it.

lol

a moment of weakness Juggledad?

Love it.

Got it!!

Go to layout.css and add this into #footer-bg:

position: fixed;
left: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
width: 100%;

I don't claim credit for this. Thanks go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxzp00S2VKo

Nice find!. You could also do something similar for the top (#banner-bg) you will have to give it a background colr, a z-index and change 'bottom' to 'top and move the content down, but that would give you a fixed header and footer on the page.

Originally I was going to post a reply here with several methods of sticking the footer to the bottom, depending on the need.

But the post kept on growing, so I decided it's best to move it to a separate thread.

That way the very first post is a complete how-to for anyone else looking for this info. I included the above solution (with credits) as the first solution, and provided two more =)
