No, you have nothing there because you haven't made any changes to it. Mine is a free account, and I am constantly tinkering with my layout. I go to a design comm, look at all the wonderful user made themes, choose one, and maybe tinker with it, then paste the css inside the box, an I have a layout based on, say default Flexible Squares, but looks completely different from it.
It's when it comes to custom layers that free users can't make any changes, but they involve a special LJ language called S2. I only dealt with it once, long ago, when someone gifted me with some paid time.
Design comms will usually spell out all the instructions to you, e.g 1. copy this code, 2. go to your edit css tab, 3. uncheck use layout's stylesheets (or leave as is) 4. paste the code. thefulcrum by grrliz is an excellent comm for very customizable thems, where you can search layouts according tp style, color, flexibility, images etc.
(I'm probably overwhelming you; sorry, that wasn't my intention!)
((And I should probably get to bed since it's already well past midnight here. i might have some banner ideas for you later today.))
ETA "Later: now I'm wondering if we can even use a banner on an unpaid account. Well, foo! Maybe will have to start paying for it to get it like I want :)"
Absolutely no need. Have a look at one of thefulcrum layouts, let me know which one you think might work and I'll edit it for you. There's no reason why you should limit yourself to stock LJ offers. :)
