i am using zen cart with Stirling Grand template installed, it took me a while as i am very new

i followed step 8 of the guide about adding a logo to my site, and i now have the logo on the site, but it seems it has moved other parts of the site around in the process, is there a maximum height that a logo can be?, as mine is currently 302px wide by 150px high, i also changed the sizes on the CSS as the guide said.

would someone be kind enough to help me with this please? if please explain in very simple terms, i cannot stress enough how poor my knowledge is at the moment :)

thanks for reading

If you are going to use a logo that is a different size than the one used in the template demo, then you may have to make some adjustments in the css.

You will need to make the main background image taller to accomodate your taller logo.

Thanks,

Anne

thanks for the reply Anne,

the background is no problem, i can do that :) i just have no idea about CSS files, no clue what i am doing, i am just following any guides i can find. the problem is i have no idea which parts of what CSS files need changing, i am hoping some on here could advise me. im not even sure what half the parts of the web site are called.

my main problem, and the part i cannot find a solution for is getting he LOG IN / REGISTER part back to where its meant to be

If you are going to make css changes to the site I would strongly recommend using firefox or chrome and their web developer tools. They will help you locate the exact line of the css file that you need to change. I don't mind helping you out if you get stuck on something, but I would like for you to try to make the changes yourself first.

Thanks,

Anne

Thank you Anne, i have been using the development tools already, but i still have no idea.

my i ask what is limiting the logo size? is the CSS from your template, or from Zen Cart? just so i have an idea where to start looking

There is no limit to the logo size. But, if you are going to use a logo that is a different size then the one used in the template, you will probably have to make some adjustments to the elements.

Thanks,

Anne

thanks again Anne,

what parts would i need to change? as i have no idea where to start

I have found a problem with my sliders on the home page. It looks fine on a laptop but it is not re-sizing the images for a smart phone. I only get half or less of the image. I have looked and looked for the answer with no luck, dose anyone have the fix for this?
