Lite Red and Black Pure templates

[bubbadan]

Hi,
I am using lite red on 1.3.9 and it works fine on my sample site, however between the Logo and the header_bg image there is an "ocean" of white space. I have tried to find a way to put a rotating banner or possibly google adsense in that space but have not had any luck.
If I could just find out how to place an image in that space with header_bg as the background I could probably figure out the rest.
Any help would be appreciated.

my sample site is here

Thanks
Bubba

According to the demo, your header ezpages and possibly the top horizontal categories would also go in the header area; you don't plan to use these?

What about a tagline?

But someone will come along who can help.

I have tried the tagline etc... you can see from my link where the issue is - there is nothing but logo/bg_image and menu bar in the tpl_header.php. I have tried putting it everywhere with no luck... Anyone?
We really want the store open on June 1st. :)
Thanks

Got it - for those that may want the answer -
open header.php to edit it with whatever program you use to edit php with.
It is found at
includes/languages/your_language/your_template/header.php (This is assuming you have a template override. If you don't it would just be in the your_language folder)

Find
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', ' ');

in between the ' ' add your image file like this

define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '<img src="images/test.jpg" border="0" width="568" height="100" alt="This is my image" title="The title of my image" />');

In my case the size of the space was 568x100 you can make your image whatever size it is you need.

You can adjust the display of the image using stylesheet.css and changing
#tagline_header
to meet your needs.

Hi guys,

I have a problem with changing the background colour/image. I've changed the stylesheet.css to below:

body {
margin: 0;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.72em;
color: #333333;
background-image: url(../images/sooty.jpg);
line-height: 17px;
}

but I still have the same background. I tried changing the colour without any avail too. Some help would be much appreciated :)

Of course no link, so I quickly looked at the demo at pixemus. Some (not necessarily all) relevant code is copied below. Are you sure you changed in the correct place?

Figure out what bg image it is (or was) and find relevant area.

body {

margin: 0;

font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 0.72em;

color: #333333;

line-height: 17px;

}

.body-bg {

background: #f3f3f3 url("../images/body_up.gif") no-repeat center top;

}

.body-upper-bg {

background: url("../images/body_bg.gif") repeat-y center top;

}

Hi guys,

body {
margin: 0;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.72em;

background-image: url(../images/sooty.jpg);
line-height: 17px;
}

Please, be sure you specified a correct path to you background image there:
background-image: url(../images/sooty.jpg);

To change the background color you should use the following CSS parameter:
background-color: #23332;

Since Zen Cart updated to the latest version, I would like to inform that all our free and premium, including Lite Red and Black Pure templates, are fully compatible with this version.
Feel free to ask any questions.

Hi VJef,
I was wondering does the latest version have the suggestions at http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...69#post1111869 . In 1.5.1 /includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_header.php was updated will that need to be updated in BlackPure?

Great template :)

Kind regards
Tim
