changing the look of a page

[iggy1977]

Hi all.

I am new to all this, but i learn fast.

I need somebody to tell me how to change actual look of a page, like how to add your own logo on the page and add some more text to the page than what is provided in admin mode.

Is there some kind program you do this with, or how do you do it?

 

Thanks :D

The logo you see is called oscommerce.gif.

It is located in the images folder.

 

To replace the logo, name your logo as oscommerce.gif and overwrite the old logo in the images folder with your new one. Refresh Page to see effect.

Okay, what I suggested above may not be the most clean approach.

Alternatively, you can get into header.php in the catalogs include folder and make the following change:

 

Original :

tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'osCommerce.gif', 'osCommerce.com')

Change to:

tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'yourLogo.gif', 'yourImageDescriptor.com')

Finally! I've installed my store & it's functioning perfectly.

 

I simply want to know how to add a menu on the header using images... (by the same token, removing the links "top..ect).

 

Examples of what Im looking to do to the header can be found here:

IOW : How can I fully customize the header as if it where an HTML table w/ columns and rows...???

Yes, you can do that easily by altering your CATALOGincludesheader.php

 

Go the section where the code for the Table starts. Just modify the table the way you like. For example, I added a column in the middle otherwise, the top middle portion of the Catalog is blank

I just started a few weeks ago, and I find to make the basic changes, this doc helps out the best...

After you have finished tweaking those settings, I would go through each of these topics that interest you. I am mid way through the list now.
