NEWBIE HELP: QUESTION ON DESIGNING


webosb

Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm new to OSC and I just successfully installed it on my webserver but now my question is how can I design my page to look more nice. I do my own graphics but I'm not very sure on where to start with OSC. What files am I suppose to edit to do layout changes? Any help would be appreciated.

The basic files that most people want to modify are the :

 

 

for control of left/right box placement:

catalog/includes/column_right.php

catalog/includes/column_left.php

 

 

for control of overall application operation

(depending upon your verision, the following three may be located in the application_top.php file)

 

catalog/includes/application_top.php

catalog/includes/filenames.php

catalog/includes/database_tables.php

 

Colors and fonts

catalog/styelsheet.css

 

Opening text and environmental changes

catalog/includes/languages/engligh/default.php

 

Header and Footer

catalog/includes/header.php

catalog/includes/footer.php

 

Main Page

catalog/default.php

 

Theres more but this should get you started.

 

Also dont forget to check out the Forums and the FAQ section. The contributions also have some cool add-ons that can modify your look and feel.

 

After you have done all of the above - Experiment! That the best way to discover the power of OSC.

The great thing about beating your head against the wall is that it feels SO GOOD when you stop!
