Replace image slider with static contents in PrestaShop 1.6

I recently began working on Prestashop 1.6.1.8 in order  to transfert my current Shopify webstore.
The objective here is to adapt the default bootstrap theme  to my needs. At present that means replacing the image slider from the homepage with a static image of similar proportions as the slider.
I removed the slider but can't seem to be able to add the  desired image in the right place and at the right size.
I acquired and installed this software yesterday in order to  facilitate this simple task. 
I have created a hook on DisplayTopColumn in order to accomodate this new image but am not sure what to do 
next ?

PrestaShop expert about replacing image slider with own static contents 

Hello

dispalyTopColumn is a default presatshop position to display contents, "html box pro" module already supports it (screnshot for reference: https://i.imgur.com/4fn6unr.png ) so remove the hook you created, it can generate some conflicts.

By default "displayTopColumn" hook contains modules:
- image slider for your homepage

- theme configurator

As i understand you disabled "image slider for your homepage' module and you want to put there own contents created with module "html box pro".

If so, just follow these steps:  

1. go to modules > positions
2. search there for list of modules named "displayTopColumn"
3. move "html box pro" module to the top of the list (it must be first on list)

then contents created in "displayTopColumn" will be there, where the "image slider for your homepage" is by default.
