Would you like to change the words, or the template it's self?

The template is located: templates/*(subSilver)/overall_header.tpl

The language file which will contain the verbiage is:
language/lang_*/lang_main.php

lang_main.php is a fairly long file, so using the find tool will come in handy.

If you want to do that you'll have to edit both of the files I listed! :-P

Also, keep in mind that some templates use text, wheras others use graphics. Depending on your template you may need to create some custom graphics.
