andoson72 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Hi Guys, Yes i am new to oscommerce and really need some help. i have a shop at www.cakeking.com.au/catalog it is only a practice shop hence why there are no cake products in the shop. I have created a logo that expands the entire width of my 15.4inch laptop which has quite a high resolution, i think 1366x768 and the logo looks good and spreads across the entire screen. However to my surprise when i tested this on a 22" monitor with i think 1650x1200 resolution and the logo spreads about 3 quarters the way across the screen then the rest of the logo is white, however the strange this is that the border around the logo is ok, it changes like the shop to the correct width automatically. Guys i would love your help and thankyou in advance. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥mdtaylorlrim Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 And on my screen I have to scroll back and forth just to see the left and right columns. Maybe if you defined just the height of the image and not the width... Community Bootstrap Edition, Edge Avoid the most asked question. See How to Secure My Site and How do I...?

Images won't resize to fit the screen. The best solution is to set the width of the site to 100% and then use a common background image or color to fill in the missing parts of the logo. This doesn't work well with logos that have borders that don't blend well but will in most cases.

Can you show me where i can change the height, i would assume that you mean i should do this in the header.php file? if this is correct what part of the header.php file?

Ok i can change this to 100%, then where do i set the background colour, i can remove the borders, that is not an issue, as long as i can get the background colour to spread the length of the screen.

I found the background header colour in the stylesheet.css under TR.header, thanks for your help on with this, i guess i have to just change by logo to show a colour as the background with out a pattern.
