Master Pages and Themeing problems

Hi All,
I'm new to MonoX. I believe I have everything installed correctly. I worked through the Blog called "Building a custom ASP.NET project based on MonoX" and got the project up and running. I can fully compile and debug it.

I'm stuck on master pages. The default Master page in the project is in the folder MonoX/MasterPages/Default.master. I made a new folder structure based on my project at the same level called TFE/MasterPages/Default.master which I copied. I then made a minor change in my new master page (just commented out the banner.jpg). I changed the default.aspx to point to my TFE master page instead of the MonoX one. After compiling, I see no change, the banner is still showing and nothing I did was reflected. What am I missing? I tried forcing a refresh in my browser just in case it was caching. Am I getting stuck on server side caching somehow?

default.aspx:
<%@ Page
Language="C#"
AutoEventWireup="true"
MasterPageFile="/TFE/MasterPages/Default.master"
Inherits="MonoSoftware.MonoX.Pages.Default"
Title="MonoX - Portal Framework for ASP.NET"
Codebehind="Default.aspx.cs" %>

Thanks for any help.

Henry

Turns out, I was changing the wrong master page but when I do change the correct one and just comment out the <img> tag that holds banner.jpg, I now get an error on the page. Here's the error in the log.

System.Web.HttpParseException (0x80004005): The server tag is not well formed. ---> System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): The server tag is not well formed.
at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ProcessError(String message)

Here's the minor change in the Default.master. Notice just the img is commented out. Any ideas?

<div class="bottom-section">
<div class="container">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12">
<div class="membership-search">
<img runat="server" src="/App_Themes/Default/img/membership-search.jpg" alt="Banner" class="scale-with-grid" />
<div class="membership-navigation-holder">
<MonoX:MembershipNavigation runat="server" ID="ctlMemership" LoginStatusLogoutText=" " />
</div>
<div class="search-holder">
<MonoX:Search runat="server" ID="ctlSearch" TextBoxCssClass="mainSearchBoxInputField" ButtonCssClass="searchImage" ButtonText="Go" DefaultSearchText="<%$ Code:DefaultResources.SiteSearch_DefaultText %>">
</MonoX:Search>
</div>
</div>

</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Wow, I'm not starting too well in my support forum debut. I took out the tag completely and everything works fine. Sorry for all the false reports.
