2. Change the top menu colour to a my own choice.
3. Set my own logo for browser tab.
4. And rename the title for my site.

1. Go to template.css and find
Code: Select all
body {
background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #F4F2EF;
line-height:1.7;
}

and change it to
Code: Select all
body {
background:url(../images/your_bg) repeat scroll 0 0 #F4F2EF;
line-height:1.7;
}

of course upload bg image to images folder.

3. It is favicon. Just go to images folder and switch it to your own.

Hi, thanks for the tips - all worked except for the background image.

I inserted the code as follows;


body { background:url(../images/main_bg.png) repeat scroll 0 0 #F4F2EF; line-height:1.7; }
body#bd { color:#979189; }
body.fs1 { font-size:10px }
body.fs2 { font-size:11px }

The image is there as per url below;

But on the website it doesn't load.

Yes but you should upload image to folder images in side your template folder.
