    Idea or Suggestion Absolute novice, but need to sort 4 things.

    Can anybody help with the following 4 problems in v1.5.
    1. How do you increase the width of the template.
    2. How do you change the names of the extra pages, ie page 2, 3,and 4.
    3. How do you add extra images to show on your product pages.
    4. How do you change the background colours or better yet add a background image so the website sits on top of it.

    How do you increase the width of the template.

    How do you change the names of the extra pages, ie page 2, 3,and 4.
    Open a COPY for your template of /includes/language/english.php and edit the red text leaving the set of single quotes
    define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2', 'Page 2');
    How do you add extra images to show on your product pages.

    Look elsewhere in that file for background image syntax that you can use for the body tag

    Tried to increase the width of the template in stylesheets.css using the info on the link you gave me. Didn`t work. I took the mainwrapper up to 2000px and there was no change in the width.
    Changed the names of the boxes fine and the background colour. Will shortly try for multiple images. thanks again (all I need is to change the width now and I`m set)
