ExtraContent
Boxes Pro has 4 main ExtraContent areas built into it.EC areas 1 has replaced my 'Clever Pants Logo Feature" (CPLF) from the original Boxes theme. If you're using a Stacks page you can now simply drag and drop an extra image file into an EC Stack and it will appear in the page header. On this page I added a photo montage and outlined this in red. Images should be maximum 80px high by 100px wide, but of course if your using Stacks you can scale your image with the Stacks palette.
EC 2 is in Side Sliding Panel. This panels can be turned on and off in the Styles palette and is ideal for your social networking stuff and there are various buttpns to choose from.
EC Area 3 runs across the top of the main content area - ideal for an animated banner etc. The Bannerzest example above includes all the Apple images included with the theme for Pageheaders.
EC Area 4 (at bottom in red box) runs across the width of the main content area, allowing you to flow content under the sidebar.
I have added some styling to EC areas 5, 6 & 7, so you can jazz up any normal content box on your site. You can select this styling by changing the EC "id" number to match the styling you are after. See the sidebar on this page for more details.

Extra Content
Well done, if you've clicked the "info" button you've unearthed Boxes Pro's Extra Content Area "2".I thought this area might be quite handy for a bio or for quotes, project references or social media stuff like a Twitter feed. I have also included a Twitter snippet with this theme.
Parameters
The space is set to be 400 pixels wide (this is set by the JQuery animation), but you can adjust the height by fiddling with this code and pasting it in to the CSS panel of the Header section of the RapidWeaver page Inspector:#quotz { height:450px; }
