Hello,

I have read and tried to implement the procedures outlined at http://www.icyphoenix.com/viewtopic...mizing+sitelogo but for some reason, it is not working.  I have changed (through the ACP) the height and then hit the submit button on both the mg_themes/overall_header.tpl and mg_themes/style_ice.css.

Step 1.

original:  overall_header.tpl


changed to:


Then I changed the .css

original style_ice.css:


changed to:


Step 2.

I check the home page and nothing has been changed.  I then recheck the files and they are in their original configuration.

What I am trying to do is combine the sitelogo_small.png with top_header.png to form a png with the dimension of width 960 and height 120.

Step 3.

This is what the uncombined header looks like with out the height adjustments.
 

This is what I want it to look like.  Notice there is no red under or on top (there is not suppose to be however, my cut and paste was done in a hurry).  I would like it flush against the border. The width of the page needs to be 100% so that it can be adjusted to the user's screen.
 

I really hope that what I am trying to do has been explained in an EASY TO UNDERSTAND manner.  I would appreciate the same in a response.  I am kind of sort of a newbie to IP.  After all I downloaded and installed it on 23 Oct 08.  This has been a rather large learning curve for me.  <smile>

Thank you in advance,

Dave

Thank you for your response.  I apologize for not getting back to you sooner however, it appears that my IP Address for some reason has been blocked by IcyPhoenix.  I do not understand how or why that would happen but it has.  I would like to get that resolved but not sure how.

I presently am using a Proxy Server just to get here to obtain the help that you are offering.

Now back to the original post.

What I did was take the original sitelogo_small.png, replaced that pic with my own and then I took the top_header.png and added to it the words that I wanted.  I then combined the two pics together.

Well.........  I just tried to upload the pics for you but apparently, I can not do that because I am using a Proxy Server, so I tried to add an attachment and I can't do that either....hmmmm......         ......    .......   .......

If you would, you could send me an email to admin at blaircountyconservatives dot org.  I really would like to have the assistance that you are offering.

Also, I need to know how to get my IP Address from being blocked on here and why it has happened in the first place.

Question before I upload everything.

3 Pictures?  I don't understand.  My intend was to only use sitelogo_small_this_is_it.png and change it's name to sitelogo_small.png.


 


Or is it that I must use the 3 pics because I am using 100% for the width?

oh, its very long way to explain

but i will try

so
if you use only this


its gona be ok when someon look your site with 1024 monitor resolution , but when someone come to your site with 1152 or 1280 or more that gona become something like this

 

so i created that your header with 3 picture
so with 1024 resolution is like this

 

and when someone come with 1152 or 1280 or more big resolution tham your header become this



now you see the red space ?


this is made just to fit in different monitor resolutions ,so header can be streched or larged depent on other members resolution...

i dont know if you understand this    

so you can chose 2 posibility... red space in middle or on right side to show when someone come to visit your site with larger resolution than 1024px

well there is one other posibility and it is that logo can be in centre of header and when someone come with larger resolution red space can be larged on left and right site in same dimensions

i dont know other ways

Thank you so much for what you have done.

I have just one more question.  As the layout is now, it is great for someone with a larger resolution however, what about those who have a smaller one?  If their resolution is smaller then they have the scroll bar at the bottom.  I was hoping to do away with that also.
