Logo and Background - How to Change

[jgrove]

Two image files control the background and logo.
One of these is controlled by CSS the other is in the HTML for the header.

'masthead.jpg' is the background and is controlled by pixaria.css

'logo.gif' is the logo you see and this is controlled through main.header.tpl (which is in your templates directory. Remember you may need to adjust some of the HTML code to fit.

Hope that helps some folks.

It is in the CSS, you can find it in this part

--------
/* ID Entities
----------------------------------------------- */

#masthead /* Defines the background image and style of the main masthead */
{
height:100px;
background-image:url('../images/masthead.jpg');
width:100%;
border:0px;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
}

#copyright /* */
{
background-color:#CCC;
padding:10px;
font-size:7pt; }

#content
{
margin:0px auto;
width:100%;
text-align:left;
min-width:900px;
}

---------

It's the #copyright part good luck

I tried last night to adjust the height of the header/masthead to accomodate my logo. But how do you change the height of the header/masthead? I know the nav has to be adjusted also, has anyone done a mod such as this?

Thanks everyone!

[Kipper]

I have trimmed a header down. It all about the cell padding as I recall. Once you have dealt with that you can reduce the overall height to suit and the nav bar with slide up as well. It is a trial and error process.

You have to play with the CSS to position everything correctly. Use add on Firebug for Firefox to say which class or div you have to modified correctly the position of your logo, menu or content.

This is the best way I think about it to do it. I used this method to do modified my both site.

Andrew, check your header template code to see if you have nothing there about your logo. But, if I remember correctly, it's on the CSS.

Good luck,
Frederic

I'm having some problems with my header when viewed at higher resolutions, in that the header doesn't stretch all the way across the screen. It cuts off part way from the right hand side.
How can i get my header to be correct in all screen resolutions? Should I use a header that is just wider, and will it cut off the extra automatically?
I don't really want the image to stretch, as it will distort the logo.
Alternatively, is there a way to place blank borders either side of the main part of the site, so that the site always stays the same proportions, and the blank borders either increase or decrease in size according to what resolution the web page is being viewed at? (ie, the gallery always stays at 640 pixels wide, but with blank borders either side to fill the rest of the screen).

Regards,
Mark
