    Default Adding Text to Home Page

    I want to add "Free shipping over $XX" under the banner which is located on the top of the page. This is the home page that I want to add the text. Can you tell me how I can do this? Do I have flexibility with the font and color?

    Do you want in IN the banner box or at the top of ONLY the index page... or on every page?

    I think maybe it should be on every page.

    I hope this is easy to do because I'm not a programmer but I can follow instructions well! The site is www.orlandopetsupplies.com.

    The easiest way is to add a banner image with the text in it from Admin, turn the banner on and off from Admin. Make the image the correct width, and height, add a new banner in Admin -> Tools -> Banner Manager and select the new image and set it to active.

    I won't loose the original image of the pets that are part of the banner when I turn the banner off to add the text, will I?

    From what I can see in your source code those images are hard coded into the index, they aren't using the banner. Where the banner loads will depend on the banner group you set it for and if the template you're using still has the banner group code. Setup the new banner and activate it, see where it pops up in this template :) We can move it to the correct location after.

    On a side note, there may be default banners in the banners manager, you can activate them to see where they load on the page :)

    I'm so afraid I'm going to mess up the banner and the image will be gone forever because I don't have the original artwork to reload them if I screw up! I think I'm going to have my programmer add the text for me. I appreciate your help!

    Don't be afraid. The images are saved on your server:
    http://orlandopetsupplies.com/includ...es/banner2.png

    As long as you use a unique name you won't overwrite the 'banner2.png' on the server :)
