1. Create a page with some information on it. Look at the URL, it will say node/1, or something to that effect.

2. Go to site configuration, site information, and look at the bottom of the page to the default front page settings. Type in the URL of the page you just created (node/1, for example).

3. You now should have your home page.

Put the setting back to 'node' in the site-information page.
Drupal will display the most recent 'shortened texts' again.

Which theme are you using?

To do what you want, your theme needs to have a 'region' above the 'main content area'.
If it doesn't have one, then you will need to edit your theme to add a region, or choose another theme.

BUT, explaining how to edit your theme in a second language will be very difficult.
It would be better to ask here: http://www.drupalcenter.de/
(unless you want to improve your english!)

If you *do* have a region above the main content area, then you would put a 'block' inside the region.
The block would contain your welcome message and information.

I use this Theme:
http://psd-resources.de/free_templates/drupal006.jpg

I can put a Text over the content:
if($_GET['q'] == 'node')
echo"Welcome!"
print $content

But the problem there is, that special-German-letters are shown as a '?'....

I will try your linked site, thanks for it.

edit:

Thanks for the site!!
They could help me:

If i dont want to short the Text I put
>!--break--<
(of course as HTML-TAG)
at the end of text.
