That's actually the page I was working through. :)  I guess my question is
this.  That doc states:

"The Publican-generated home page is the localizable page to which visitors
are directed by the site JavaScript and which **provides the style** for
the website structure."

So I created a home page article per the directions, adding "web_type:
home" and "brand: videoNEXT" to its publican.cfg.  However, when building
it for install, instructions ask for the following:

publican build --publish --formats html-single --embedtoc --langs all

Which results in HTML without any brand/style content applied, apparently
because of the --embedtoc.(?)  So installing this into the website doesn't
seem to bring with our brand/style information.  I'm sure I'm missing
something simple here, but what part of the process supplies the
brand/style css and (common_content) images to the web doc root?  I was
assuming it came with the home page article, or is it supposed to be
manually gathered?

To be clear, after going through the process of create_site, adding a home
page article, and one other book. (both added to the web site). I can see
the "content" from the home page and book doc when browsing, but there are
lots of 404s as you'll see below:

/common/en-US/css/menu.css
/videoNEXT/en-US/css/menu.css
/en-US/labels.js
/footer.html
/videoNEXT/en-US/images/image_left.png
/videoNEXT/en-US/images/image_right.png
/en-US/images/web_logo.png
/common.css
/overrides.css
/lang.css


Thanks again!
