hello I would like to know how to change the text colour in the album description of my gallery

also, how do I add a background image where the plain black background is?

You are using a theme called "curve_floog_01"

edit your styles.css in the subdirectory ...your gallery.../themes/curve_floog_01    (copy it first!)


At around line 58 look for

#cpg_logo_block_name {
    float: right;
    text-align: center;
}

add a line

#cpg_logo_block_name {
    float: right;
    text-align: center;
    color: Red
}
}

defining your chosen colour

This will change gallery description

For the gallery name

copy the block  and modify as below

#cpg_logo_block_name>h1 {
    float: right;
    text-align: center;
    color: Yellow
}
}

for demostration purposes I have made it a different colour




Hope this helps

Tried that, doesnt seem to have altered it - to confirm, its the text colour in the image below that got a red line under it

Just a quick note in case you didn't know, after editing the file, you'll have to Ctrl +F5 to clear your browser cache to see the changes.

Then you must be editng the wrong file, or wrong part of it.  I didn't check  roger_morgan's code to see if it was correct.  Might pay you to use the Firebug addon in Firefox, that should show you where and what to edit.

Firebug says that the white text color is inherited from element "body" (line 18). Find

Code Select Expand

color: fff;
and replace with something like

Code Select Expand

color: 000;

thankyou, that has sorted the text

now - how do I put in a background image that is repeated?
