Make my own template

[Sadovsky]

Hi! Sorry, I guess you've had a lot of these questions, but I searched your board and coudln't find any answers:/

I was wondering how you make your own template, with top picture, background, own css etc.

I really appreciate your help!:) Thanx!

Take the default theme as a point to start with, create a copy of the whole folder "default" and rename it to "mytheme" or whatever.
First, edit the file template.html to change the overall look - where do the menus appear, what padding and margin should there be.
Second, change the colors in style.css; if you feel lost with all the labels, copy the file /themes/fruity/style.css to /themes/yourtheme/ and use it instead of the style sheet of the default theme (there are some color comments at the top of the file).
Do not use a WYSIWYG-editor (like MS frontpage), but some plain-text editor (notepad.exe will do fine) to edit your theme.
