The main styles for your blog are contained within the theme's style sheet, named .css. You can edit this to your heart's content, base new themes off of it, and so on. Each theme can have any number of different "schemes", which are color/graphics preferences. This configuration is data stored inside .ini, with each scheme having its own [section].. [cool-scheme] name="cool" font_family="sans-serif" textcolor="#fff" background_color="#000" [another-cool-scheme] name="too cool" font_family="'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Tahoma, sans-serif" textcolor="#000" background_color="#fff" [etc.] The name of the ini file *must* match the css file who's schemes it contains. To specify schemes for.. "original.css" use this configuration file.. "original.ini" There is no fancy error-checking on the [key] name (unlike the links ini files), so it's probably wise not to use any funky characters in there. For a cool scheme editor GUI, load /blog/inc/scheme-edit.php into your web browser. NOTES & TIPS: * If you use "*something*_img" as your variable names for image paths, e.g.. title_bg_img="images/brown_hills_a.jpg" .. you can use short paths like "images/image.png" in your preferences, instead of the full path to the theme folder. The "_img" part can be anywhere in the preference name. * If the image path beghins with a forward slash "/", the above behaviour is disabled, and the path will be taken literally from the site root, e.g. title_bg_img="/images/brown_hills_a.jpg" * If you image path/name contains the word "hover", the image will be automatically added to a JavaScript image pre-loader, ensuring the image is available for immediate use in the browser. * The admin page uses styles from the main admin style sheet: /blog/inc/themes/admin.css. You can obviously edit this, but you can also create admin.css files /inside/ your theme's folder, so that they override only admin styles for that theme. This is a better approach, especially if you plan to create more themes. It also generally means you need to create a *much* smaller .css file. * The admin page does some dynamic color switching using the following variables, which you are expected to have set in your theme's configuration (ini) file.. butt_txt = normal preference tab's title text butt_txt_selected = active preference tab's title text butt_bg = normal preference tab's title background butt_bg_selected = active preference tab's title background If you do not have them set, corzblog will use its default values (black/white/grey). All other color switching happens in CSS, so do what you like with that. Have fun! ;o) Cor
