    Default Beginner questions

    I am trying again with building a shop and I am useless at this so here are some really easy questions!

    How do you change the alt message on the logo.gif?

    How do you change the "sales message goes here" message?

    How do you use the full width of the top part of the page to add a full width banner? (bet that doesn't even make sense!).

    My new site is www.printinginprogress.net/shop. My old site which is messed up from changing hosting company is www.printinginprogress.net. I want to be able to put that flash banner off my old site onto the new one. It is owned by me but I paid someone to make it. Is there anyway of adding it? Especially when I am useless!?!?!?!

    Thank in advance.

    Jason.

    First thing to do is search here for template_default and read about all the reasons that you should create a template based on the template_default fileset. You are curently using the classic template and this uses 2 stylesheets and will be problematic now and later.
    How do you change the alt message on the logo.gif?
    It appears that you have solved this
    How do you change the "sales message goes here" message?
    Also solved this
    How do you use the full width of the top part of the page to add a full width banner? (bet that doesn't even make sense!).
    Once you have created the template refered to above, open the stylesheet.css file in a text editor of your choice and find this code:
    Code:
    /*wrappers - page or section containers*/
    #mainWrapper {
    	background-color: #e5edf5;
    	text-align: left;
    	width: 760px;
    	vertical-align: top;
    	}
    change the red highlighted value to the width in px or % that you want. If you do not have a "fluid" type of header image set this to the value of the width of your header image.
