What is the loading time of this template?

Can I easily change the colors on this template?

  • As long as you are familiar with CSS, you can change the colors.  Our colors and fonts are all defined in the "style.css" file, which is in the Folder List along with your other  files.

Where's the theme?

  • There isn't one.  This template is totally driven by the external style sheet, and uses FrontPage Navigation for the menu system.

Can I edit the flash movies?

  • Only if you have Flash 5 or MX and know how to use it.  We've included the .fla source files for your convenience.

How do I change "Your Name Here" at the top of the pages?

  • Put your own logo in place, or you can just use FrontPage and type in your name and information.  Our "Your Name Here" was done in an outside graphics program (using the font Felix Titling) - if you have graphics capabilities, you may letter your own using the pre-sized "yournamehere.gif" or layered "yournamehere.psd" image in the images/design_elements/ folder of the web.   You may letter, then save back to the same directory as "company_name.gif" - overwriting our file and thus placing your file on each page with little effort!  As an alternative you can delete the graphic and type in your company name, address, etc.  For your convenience, the modified logo only needs to be placed on the page "include_logo.htm".

Can I add more pages?

  • Certainly!  You can add as many as you wish!  Just use one of our blank page templates (see the "What's Included" page of this template).  Go to the Folder List (View, Folders) and open the template named blank.htm (or blank2.htm).  As soon as it is open, go to File, Save AS... - then save it as the name you want your new page to have.  Now, go to the Navigation view (View, Navigation).  Is your Folder List open as well?  If not, the go to View, Folder LIST to open it.  Next, locate the new filename in the Folder List (it's probably at the bottom), left click over it and while holding down the left mouse button, drag it over into the Navigation Structure and drop it where you want it, so that it is underneath either the Home page or another existing page.  Repeat every time you wish to add a new page!

Why can't I change the (pick a word) in the lower section???

  • The lower portion of this template is contained in an included, separate page for your convenience.  This way, you only have to make the modifications on one page for them to appear on all pages.  Open the page include_bot.htm to make your changes, save, and you're done!

Can I put my own images in the text area of the page?

  • Sure - you can do virtually anything with this template you can do with any web.
