I need to get rid of the header elements of JA_Purity_ii on Joomla 1.7: the header-mask, the logo, the header1.png…..
Instead, I just have a single jpg file I created I want to serve as the header banner.
So far I tried commenting out these elements in template.css – only partial success.

Tracking down these element I came down at file t3-assetscss6c04d.css and managed to eliminate some elemetns there – still to no avail.

I’m sure there’s an elegant way to do this – what is it?

BTW, I have a custom made PROFILE assigned to the homepage. All the rest use the default.
Also, my site is set to RTL (right-to-left)

Thanks for any advise!

First of all, that css file on t3-assets has nothing to do with youre template css. That css file is automatically generated by T3 Framework because you have at least css compresion activated. You can deactivate from template manager, editing youre ja_purity_ii template, but will cause at least a small delay on page load.

To remove headermask, go to your template.css from ja_purity_ii/css/ folder.
Find this code and remove it :

.ja-headermask {
background: url(../images/header-mask.png) no-repeat top right;
display: block;
height: 80px;
position: absolute;
right: -1px;
top: 0;
width: 602px;
z-index: 0;
}

Your site logo css code is also inside template.css with those two codes :

h1.logo {

h1.logo a {

If you look to add a single banner on your site, inside template.css finde this code :

#ja-header {

and make proper customizing.

I strongly advise you to make some changes to youre banner, and add the hole banner from #ja-header css code and youre logo from h1.logo a css code.

If you have other question feel free to ask !

Thank you, shara21jonny!

I had to modify both template.css AND template-rtl.css – but I managed to remove header-mask, Joomla logo and place my header banner.
What I still can’t remove is the T3 Framework logo still stubbornly stuck on my header… Where is this coming from?

Also, I’m afraid I didn’t quiet understand your suggestion:
“I strongly advise you to make some changes to your banner, and add the hole banner from #ja-header css code and your logo from h1.logo a css code”.

Lastly, when I re-apply the css compression, I’m losing my header banner altogether and the template’s original pics comes back. Do I need to delete the t3-assets css files (cache-like)?

Thanks!
