I would like to change the header area in JA Nickel to my own photo that will fill the width of the template. I am completely confused about how to do this. Please help! I need very specific instructions, including where to find files that should be changed.

I figured out how to change the logo by replacing the old logo.png file, but I want to make the header section taller, to accommodate a height of 200 pixels.

Thank you!:eek:

Hi laelgray

Welcome on Board!

To expand the logo area, you will need to edit the template.css file

/templates/ja_nickel/css/template.css

Find the following bit of code:

h1.logo a {
background: url(../images/logo.png) no-repeat;
display: block;
height: 60px;
width: 295px;
}

(around line number 700 as far as I remember!)

and change the height and width to suit.

The ‘header’ code is also in that area.

Hope this helps
Chris
