The "J1.5" namespace is an archived namespace. This page contains information for a Joomla! version which is no longer supported. It exists only as a historical reference, it will not be improved and its content may be incomplete and/or contain broken links.
The original JA Purity template was provided from JoomlArt.com as a zip but the latest files have been installed along with Joomla. The relevant files, logo.gif (used for PNG transparency problems), logo.png and template.css, can be found in templates/ja_purity. If you've been following the tutorial, you can download a tutorial version of the template that installs to the templates/my_japurity folder. Inside the folder of the template, the files are located as follows:
<location of template>/ css/ template.css images/ logo.gif logo.png
Replacing the Logo[edit]
- Create a new image, width: 207 pixels , height: 80 pixels using any graphics editor such as Gimp.
- Save the image as both a PNG and a Gif to the template images directory. Make sure you overwrite the existing logo.gif and logo.png files.
- Edit, Save, Test till you are satisfied with your new logo.
Changing the Logo Size[edit]
