Colors and backgrounds

[Bianca]

hi I just uploaded pics to my gallery and I've seen other galleries that are sutomized with banners and logos, etc. I would like to change the background and add personal touched to my photo gallery. How do I go about doing this?  I want to personalize my board kind of like this one
http://www.toni-online.com/photogallery/  

I want a darker background and to add my own logo.

add the logo in /themes/yourtheme/template.html
change the colors in /themes/yourtheme/style.css

If you're not sure what css class is responsible for rendering which content, take a look at the styleguide: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/viewtopic.php?p=16150#16150

I've uploaded a file backgrd.gif into subdir mytheme/images.

Then I've added in style.css: "background-image:url('images/backgrd.gif'); "

Code Select Expand

body {
        font-family : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 12px;
        background-color: #f5f5f5;
        background-image:url('images/backgrd.gif');
           color : Black;
        margin: 0px;
}

But there will not be shown any backgrd.gif. What's wrong?

You need to give the link 'themes/your_theme/images/backgrd.gif', not just 'images/backgrd.gif'.

Thx, casper, for your help.

But that was not the solution. The path in style.css is correct. But I had forgotten to change the path in template.html to the new theme.
