J1.5:Customising the JA Purity template/customisations/Adding or changing a header colour scheme

This Namespace has been archived - Please Do Not Edit or Create Pages in this namespace. Pages contain information for a Joomla! version which is no longer supported. It exists only as a historical reference, will not be improved and its content may be incomplete.

Header color schemes are kept in the directory /ja_purity/styles/header. Editing the CSS file will change the colors.

To add a new color scheme:

1. Create a new directory under /ja_purity/styles/header called by your color's name (i.e. gray).
2. Copy all the contents (including sub-directories) of one of the other directories (i.e. blue) into this directory.
3. Edit the style.css file to have the colors you want. For instance the following changes will make a readable set of colors:

 #006699 -> #CCCCCC;
 #C3DFED -> #444444;
 #1E7CAB -> #BBBBBB.

4. Edit the images to make them the colors you want.
5. Select the color for your new directory in the template manager.

Remember to religiously refresh. reload, etc. to get the colors to show up.
