Hi Sakk,

you would need to add background colours/images to the main site container, header & navigation tables in the file stylesheets/shop.css.
There isn't a way of changing the whole site background in one code change. If you need help in locating any of the tables in shop.css just post back in here.

Regards,

Open the folder stylesheets and find shop.css
If you are using VP-ASP v6.50, near the top you will see

body{
font-size:12px;
text-align:center;
margin:0px;
}


You can add:-

background-image: url(../images/whatever.jpg);
background-repeat : repeat-x;
background-position : top;

after the { bracket

If you just want to add an image to the navigation bar, find the start of the navigation styles:

/* Horizontal navigation */ and add the background code to the table.
Same for any other tables in the stylesheets
Hope this helps,

Carrol

Hi Sakk,

1. To change the colour of the Welcome header open stylesheets/shop.css and find line 291 (approx.)

#homecontent h1 { color:#000099; }

Change the colour to your requirements.

2. To change the overall type size go to the top of shop.css and find

body{
font-size:12px;
text-align:center;
margin:0px;
}

Change the font size to 14px. I'm not 100% sure if this will change the whole site's type size, maybe someone else can help out here.

Hope this helps,

Carrol
