Simple Zen Template - Support Thread

[jettrue]

OK so far i have made it look like this http://www.gorillagear.ca/store/index.php which i'm satisfied with but i'd like http://www.gorillagear.ca/GorillaNuke/ with background images for the borders etc.

Oh my, well those are some quite complicated borders. I'm a less is more gal myself , but to do that, you're going to have to go into the includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_box_default_left.php and tpl_box_default_right.php and start creating a table shell to hold all of those corners. Give them each a specific css tag, then you can go into your css file, and start adding background images. You already have them chopped up, so that's one step down.

Did you build the sideboxes for the layout you linked? If so, it shouldn't be too bad, but the first step will be going into the two files above, and change the framework for the sideboxes.

Hope that helps a bit!

ETA: I would also suggest that you either optimize your images (make medium (_MED) and large ones (_LRG) OR install the ImageHandler2 mod, that will do all that for you. I find your site images take a long time to load.
