Title: Matching gallery theme with site theme (igame).
Post by: muzzy on April 17, 2007, 10:22:50 AM
Hi all
Im pretty new to all of this CSS ad html editing and have got to the point where my knowledge is quite lacking.....  :(

Ive made up my website using joomla and wanting to get a good gallery i decided to try and integrate Coppermine. This was done without any issues.

Im now trying to match the coppermine theme with my site theme and im having a little trouble... As i said i'm not that clued up on CSS and HTML so have gone for trying to modify the igame theme to fit the space i have left. This seems to be easier said than done.

Ive spent the last few days searching the internet to help explain what i need to do and have butchered themes trying to either match the colour or size of my main theme but sadly no joy.

I was wondering if some would be able to point me in the right direction?

The igame theme seems to best resemble my site theme so all i need to do is decrease the width.

This is where i integrated the gallery. http://www.dumpinground.com/copper/index.php
And if you look to the far right you cans see that the gallery is a little wider than the main title.

If anyone can help i would appreciate it.

Many thanks in advance.

Check out this section in the manual and set Width of the main table (pixels or %) to around 750. Adjust it for your needs.

Thanks for the reply Gizmo.
Ive taken a look and tried playing around. Just wanted to check though, i edit this within the Style.css and not the Template.html and Theme.php right?

None of those files. You're suppossed to do this using Coppermine's config page.

Hi Guys
Thought i would get back to you and let you know how it went.... I managed to get it working but unfortunately it was using the suggestion you posted.

All i did was compare 2 different themes and made notes of the differences in border size, colours and fonts etc... and finally got it to fit the site.

I now have lots of pictures uploaded and the gallery works a treat!! definitely the best gallery I've used.

Again thanks for the quick and helpful responses.
