is there any way to use regular HTML to change the look of your Xanga? like i used to use Diaryland Blogging, but now i've switched to Xanga, only i want to keep the same template. do i have to buy premium or not? and is this actually possible?

You can edit your xanga layout without premium by using CSS. :)

i found somewhere that you could do HTML and put it in the Header... which i tried today and it sooo did not work. so where in the heck do i put all my HTML? in the header all it did was show up above my regular stuff.

You put it in the header, make sure the box is checked.. and you might want this code..it will get rid of all the stuff on the left of your page, but you might want to add a custome module to supply your links and things. You might try redoing your code and using codes made for xanga from places like blogring.net and createblog.com =)

removing the footer is illegal
