Hi everyone:

There are a few things that i would like to add to my Coppermine site.

First, i would like to add a email graphic button to the bottom of the page.

Second, i would like scrolling text (marquee) to scroll from right to left on the top.

And third, i would like the option of placing a banner at the top and bottom.

I believe the file i am to edit is template.html in my themes directory but am not sure where exactly to start placing code.

Things you want at the top of the page go at the top, things you want at the bottom of the page go underneath {GALLERY}. Just play around with it, you can always restore a backup of the template - you can't really do any harm.

As long as you don't change the code like {GALLERY}, you can put it anywhere you want.  If you want stuff at the top, consider putting it right after the <body> declaration, and likewise before the </body> declaration for stuff at the bottom.  Do a little experimenting to get the results you want.
Do not send me a private message unless I ask for one.  Make your post public so everyone can benefit.

erm, shouldn't html content that goes to the top appear after <body> rather than after </head>?

Yes, of course.  Partially my fault  :-[.

Kegobeer had originally used '<head>' and '</head>, so I did a quick, but incorrect edit. :-[
It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here
