Have you got a url we could take a look at.

I’ve just checked the demo on the main site but it doesn’t seem to have the user tools on there.

Site is offline right now…

I just want to turn:
style1.gif
style2.gif
style3.gif

into

style1.png
style2.png
style3.png

The template CSS file doesn’t have these images nor the templatools.php

How can I locate the style to be able to change it from .gif to .png ?

I really appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance 😉

Hey Blueman

As I can’t physically see the site (or the usertools on the demo), the only advice I can give you (And this WILL work) is to download Firebug (http://www.getfirebug.com).

This is a developers tool for Firefox which allows you to inspect images, sections etc on websites and locate, change settings to the site on the fly without actually making the changes to the code. These changes are only temporary whilst you see how the site would look – Sooooooooooooo

Why do you need this?

Well, you need to locate the images in a css file? right? Use firebug to inspect the usertool images and in the code area it will tell you which css file the code to the images is located in.

So crete your new images in photoshop, upload them to the right area on your site and then using firebug locate the image code and then amend the actual css file to repoint to the png’s and not the gifs.

If you had a URL – I could’ve just given you the exact location of your images rather than write the whole of the above. But then again, this is how you learn to do new things. 🙂

Hope this helps. If you’re still stuck – let me know. If you can get a link to the site – i’ll be able to help you quicker.

Thanks anisjolly,
I sent you a PM with a link. Site is up now.
Let me know if you find where to change those images to png.
It’s not on any of the CSS files, or templatetools.php
Is got to be in functions somewhere.
Thanks again

Thanks,
I found it as you said on the index.php I wasn’t expecting it there.
For those who have the same problem, just change “gif” to “png”

On this line…
[PHP]<?php if ($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER)) { ?>
<div id=”ja-usertools”>
<?php $tmpTools->genToolMenu($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER) & 7, ‘gif’); ?>
</div><div class=”clr”></div>
<?php } ?>[/PHP]

Thanks for pointing me the direction anisjolly
Regards,
BlueMan;)
