To make CPG fit to my homepage, I modified the Igames theme accordingly. In the end, it looks quite different, so probably some may want to have the modified theme - here it is.

Have fun!

Thanks for your continued contribution. I prefer version numbers over terms like "improved version", so I re-packaged your most recent contribution and named it v1.1.
I had to apply some minor tweaks (like moving the additional image into the proper folder) and replacing the image that displays "Fotogalerie" (mind the German-only spelling) with the actual gallery name. I edited my above posting - the new download link now is http://downloads.sourceforge.net/coppermine/cpg1.4.x_theme_timoswelt_v1.1.zip - the demo link remains the same.

Hi Joachim,

thanks for merging the threads, and I'll use version numbers from now on of course.

Quotereplacing the image that displays "Fotogalerie" (mind the German-only spelling)

A question of personal taste I think. In the end it was meant as a placeholder; all the user has to do is exchange a JPG file to adapt the header optics to his/her own needs. Something that surely everyone can do who deals with photos often enough to want an own gallery ;)

Don't know if a newbie user will find the line
<h1>{GAL_NAME}</h1><a id="scrolldown" name="scrolldown"></a>
and the corresponding CSS information to adapt the header font, color, optics etc. to his/her own need as easily. I remember myself quite well playing around with CPG and themes for the first time. I surely didn't then.

But as I said - it's a question of taste, and your solutuion surely is more 'pure'.

BTW: Could be a nice feature for future versions not too difficult to implement - "replace gallery head line by own image". There's quite some themes where this would work well.
