ZC Default Template Dimensions?

Hello. I'm new here and literally just installed ZC about 30 minutes ago. I'm not by any means new to web development, but like many of those new to ZC I do have a question about creating a template from scratch.

I understand the layout, flow, look whatever you wish to call it is controlled by CSS. So taking a customized template and converting to ZC takes a little tweaking of some files. No big deal.

What I want to know is does anyone know what the default dimensions of the classic ZC template are?

What I want to do to is create a layout in Photoshop using the default dimensions so I can make sure all of my stuff lines up,etc. before I go through the process of implementing it into ZC.

Normally I would just take a quick screenshot of the default store after install, paste in Photoshop and modify from there. But I was wondering if anyone knew of default measurements for the overall site, header,columns,etc.

I hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance for the help.

Re: ZC Default Template Dimensions?

what the default dimensions of the classic ZC template are?
750px wide
header background - 760px × 110px

As a "web developer" with an installed cart you can right click anything to see these things
You are not restricted to this and can alter to suit

Kobra,

Thanks for the information and quick response. I noticed your said the header width was 750 but the width of the header was listed as 760. Is this a typo? A header larger than the width of the site itself would throw things off a bit.

Duh - I should have thought about right clicking and also found where I can adjust column sizes,etc. from the admin portion.

Thanks again!

The background image is 760 and is truncated because it is applied through css and is in the background
