Where's some basic template info?

Hey guys,

I'm going from an all HTML website with around 800 products hand entered lol...

Not fun.

 

I'm looking forward to making the move to osCommerce, but I'm curious... How in the world do I change the overall look of the site? How do I add pages with extra info (i.e. our different policies, or whatever)? How do I add google, overture, etc. tracking?

 

If nothing else, can somebody just point me in the right direction. :-)

Unfortunately, there is no single answer for all of that. Some of the changes you want will need to be done via contributions (see link at top). these are code changes people have writen to enhance the shop in some way. Also take a look at the above documentation link. It ecplains some things, like adding pages. Most of your questions have been answered already so using the search function can save you a lot of time. You basically need to jump in, choose one item to change and try it. If you can't figure it out, ask here. Just to get you started, download the stylesheet to your computer and change the background color for the class .infobox so that it looks like

.infoBox {
 background: #00ff00;
}

Save the file and upload it then view your site to see the difference.
