sacredromania Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 Hello to everyone, I just installed the osCommerce on my domain, I did setup name of store, address, etc. Please, is anyone benevolent to enlighten me what is the next step? I would like to change: 1. Colour of background 2. Add a logo at top 3. Change colour of InfoBoxes (that light blue or so) 4. Install EasyPopulate (stable release) 5. Show an InfoBox for customer login (e-mail, psw) 6. Make the width of general layout smaller a bit. I want some aside margins, colour of background. 7. Change title of main page (top blue bar), edit metatags. Maybe for each product. This is for first. Of course, I must learn. Ideas, links, resources. Open-source world. Thank you in advance for your benevolence. Marian P.S. What are the steps, as theory, for creating my own template? Some simple and blue.
