Sophy Blue Template

Greetings and salutations. I am to say that I've only been a "Zenner" for a few days, and have found my answers via the "forum search". That is a hallmark of a good community.

Anyrate. I've pretty much got the basics down; a TON of "tweaking" needs done, but the basics are falling in place. I really like the flavour of the theme, and really don't want to alter it awful much. It follows the theme of my forum.

I've linked a screen shot. The background of the logo. That BEAUTIFUL blue/shaded box. I want THAT 100%, or at least centered. If I can get it centered, I can edit it in GiMP and stretch it a tad for my logo.

i was jacking with this variable, and I was able to get the image to repeat it's self. I changed the width in % and it had NO change, I changed it to px and I could shrink it but it maxed at the image max.

is there a way to do what I want?

Code:

#logoWrapper {
  width: 100%;
  height:110px;
  background-image: url(../images/header.gif);
 
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  }

Here is a link to my forum, as you can see it's "done" bust just without a community yet. If you notice the plastic logo I made, you can see that it would be PERFECT for that background.

Just a note to let you know, I solved the problem. I got it centered, and that was/is VERY promising. Here is the code I used.

Code:

---

#logoWrapper {
  width: 100%;
  height:110px;
  background-image: url(../images/header.gif);
  background-position: top center;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  }

Also, just a note I already fixed the column problem in my snap shot after I took it. :smile:

Also, I'd like to share some resources I know of. It's good, promise.

Now, to get rid of the 'Sophy' meta tags so they don't show in the balloons. LOL!

You have been Zenned :smartalec:

Thank you Sophy, I am honoured to be Zenned by a master.

Any tips on getting your name off the meta tags? -wink wink- -pant pant-

Great theme BTW. I will post snaps as I go. Matter of fact, I should start my own thread for just that purpose. i like to use forums as a personal "What the heck did I do to fix this last time." log, hence why I post my own fixes. LOL!

Cheers from the Great White North, and I know we'll run across each other again.

Oh Sophy, I was thinking. I am sorry if you think I want to remove your link from the bottom, or the reference link to zen. THAT is not what I am after.

if you look at my Site I have the links for that software there also. Being a paid charter member, I do not HAVE to, however I am proud of the tools I use.

What I am after is at the top; the meta tags, it says "-Product Name- Sophy's Blue-Grey Free Template" At the top. i Do not, and WILL not remove your link from the bottom of the pages, however a address hover I'd like it to say the name of my company.

Thanks,
Ted

Here is what I mean

Go to your language folder:
includes > languages > english > sophybluegr > metatags.php

Have fun!

-sniffle- And people wonder why I love the wares I do. You're a good egg there Sophy, and hopefully one day I can help you.

-cheers-

ok I have this themed installed and working pretty good. (Love It)

Only thing I notice is once in awhile when I go to site it does not show shopyblue but some generic basic run of the mill theme.

I keep having to login to admin panel and revert theme back to sophyblue.

Any ideas?

I have NEVER heard of this before :blink: with this or any other template.

I'm lost here.

I went to your store and didn't see that happening.
