Hi Guys

Quite new at this so please be patient with me.

Site Details:

http://xtremecarzone.com.au/

Version 2.3.6

Ok if you look at the site you will see the logo I have in the top left corner Posted Image

I'm about to redo it to something a little better now I have a handle on photoshop.

I would like to have it at least 110 to 150 high and about 700 wide.  Presesntly it's only 67 high by 302 wide.

If I upload a pic 150x700, well you all know what will happen.  So I'm gathering that I need to change the height of what I assume is the header.

How the hell do I do this?  Be gentle withe me.  I may need step by step help.  I would like to learn how but if it all gets too hard I wil end up paying one of you to do it but I would like to have a bash at it first.

Anybody willing to tell me how to do it?

Cheers

Look & Feel >> Edit Stylesheet (CSS Advanced Mode)

Find logostrip and logographic as shown below. Change height:68px (or whatever height yours shows) to your new image height.
You will also have to make a new tile_back.gif image to tile the backgroud to fill from where your logo ends across to the right end of the top.

#logostrip{ 
	background: #3860BB url(style_images/<#IMG_DIR#>/tile_back.gif);
	border: 1px solid #FFF;
	height:68px;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

#logographic{
	background: transparent url(style_images/<#IMG_DIR#>/logo4.gif) no-repeat left;
	height: 68px;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

Well that was a piece of cake.  God I love this package.

All I have to do is now change my logo to the new one once I finish it.

So just one more question please

Where do I change the colour of this.

See attached image

Have a look for it in the same place Sandi pointed you to for your other enquiry :)

Edit Stylesheet (CSS Advanced Mode)

Just use your browsers 'find' to quickly find it ;)
