ozpost shipping module

[RodG]

I don't know if this is a bug or something I did wrong. In the admin, I was getting a broken image (the little logo)

Hmmm, what little logo?

I suspect that you have something amiss, because although the austpost module DID have a little logo in the admin section this was removed for the ozpost module, partly because it required a duplication of some of the graphics, and partly to keep it uniform with the other shipping modules.

Perhaps a screenshot of where the 'missing logo' goes may be beneficial?

obviously not important but I thought I would let you know.
To fix it I created a file structure similar to the one in auspost and uploaded an image. Funny thing was the file structure had to be..admin/DIR_WS_TEMPLATEStemplate_default/images/icons/ozpost_logo.jpg.
Was the only way I could get it to work.

See above. This is one of the reasons why the logo was removed from that section of the code. (Actually, it isn't techically removed, it is simply prevented from being dispayed. This will probably make a little more sense by looking at the code, maybe).

I'm a bit fussy about astetics so I've been creating some new images

I think we all like things to look good, especially in a professional webstore. Alas, my talent is in coding, my graphics skills are severely lacking.

and I'm also wanting to make some changes to the pop up window. I wanted to get the numeral (indicater of days shipping) to line up vertically with the center of the image that precedes it.

Ideally, the best way to do this would be to use graphics rather than text (I agree it looks a bit yukky in its current format). Unfortunately I've not had the time to add code for this yet (not to mention actually creating the numerical graphics). This probably can be improved upon even in text format by changing the font style. Again, time has prevented me from doing anything more than 'getting it working'.

I also want to use the images, but have text for Days (Est' Delivery) Is that possible.
I know it seems trivial.

Yes, it is possible, but you will need to modify the code to do so. It will actually be quite an easy thing to do, and will probably only require the modification of one line of code.

A quick look at the code would suggest you can probably achieve this by commenting out line 479 of ozpost.php
(the line that has zen_image($this->icon.del) )

I'm not sure, but you may also be able to achieve the same effect simply by deleting the icon itself. :-)

I'm guessing that there are some files already in zen cart that work with the ones you created, and perhaps one of them styles the pop up. Am I way off?

You are pretty much on the mark. The ozpost module doesn't have its own css styles, as such it take on the look of whatever style/theme/template you are using.
