    Default Can i replace the word "Categories" in the category box with an image?

    I am using zen cart 1.3.8
    My site has been upgraded.
    I do not have any add ons at the moment.

    I have tried to customize the classic zen cart to suite more of my business and aesthetic needs.

    ok so answers aside I am trying to change the word "Categories" in the categories box to something more attractive. If you look at my website store.detailershaven.com you will notice that I am using a stylized version of marketing script in the logo. I would like to use the same type of font for the words Categories and Information without changing the font of the actual product categories.

    I hope that makes sense.

    Here is a picture





    Thanks in advance.

    I appreciate the prompt response. From what I gather from the link it adds an image.

    What I want to do is replace the current word "Categories" and "information" with something I have designed in adobe fireworks or photoshop. Is it even possible?

    You mean like I have done HERE ?

    If so... view the site in forefox and use firebug to display the CSS.

    The clues should be evident in stylesheet.css . . . . right at the bottom of stylesheet.css

    Look for the following in my stylesheet:

    SIDEBOX HEADINGS WITH IMAGES AND NO TEXT

    I am still very new with this. I have been playing around with the stylesheet.css in firefox however I don't see how I would place an image to substitute the word categories and information.

    If you could smack me in the right direction I would appreciate it

    I can't do it for you for free, unfortunately.

    If you are new to CSS then you will need to do some tutorials on css first. There are some good ones at w3schools.com .

    I am by no means asking for you to do it for free.

    I looked in stylesheet.css and I can't find that phrase you indicated.

    Also in firebug i have expanded shorthand properties and yet when editing the actual stylesheet.css i don't have the expanded shorthand properties?

    I would appreciate help from anyone.

    Thanks.

    You need to look in MY stylesheet - not YOURS.

    You are absolutely right. I had a duh moment there.

    It worked perfectly. Now all I have to work on is making the nav bar a little prettier lol. Thanks again for your help.

    Cheers,
    Nick
