I have created a new logo to put at the top left of my gallery. It is 600x75 pixels. I replaced the original file with this new one, but I can't find where in the code to resize it so that its not scrunched.

Just take a look you'll see what I mean:
http://www.versatilestile.com/gallery4/

P.S. How do I set the default color scheme for all users / guests to black?

themes/matrix/theme.tpl find

      <div id="gsHeader">
	<img src="{g->url href="images/galleryLogo_sm.gif"}" width="107" height="48" alt=""/>
      </div>

looks like you got the black sorted.
PS try the colorpack module and color packs.

and save as

assuming matrix theme and the small gallery logo......
in
themes/matrix/theme.tpl find

      <div id="gsHeader">
	<img src="{g->url href="images/galleryLogo_sm.gif"}" width="107" height="48" alt=""/>
      </div>

And change to
themes/matrix/local/theme.tpl find

      <div id="gsHeader">
	<a href="your url here"><img src="{g->url href="images/galleryLogo_sm.gif"}" width="107" height="48" alt=""/></a>
      </div>

Before my CSS book arrives, I have been now trying to work out how to add a little padding on my logo so that it matches the position of the same logo in my main site. I have been doing some CSS web tutorials and from what I understand, to do that I need to edit the CSS style information for ‘container’ that holds the logo. As the logo appears in the gsHeader section I have been trying to find that in the theme.css but without luck...

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

Can anyone tell me where to download the Dutch translation of the add-to-cart module as seen on the website of the Topic Starter ? I've sent hime a private message, but still no reaction.
There is also no e-mail adress on his web page..... Otherwise I would have tried that one...

On you main page you have:
<BODY ..... MARGINWIDTH="30" MARGINHEIGHT="10" TOPMARGIN="10" LEFTMARGIN="30">
edit the css you have and find:

body.gallery {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

and change to:

body.gallery {
MARGINWIDTH: 30px;
 MARGINHEIGHT:10px;
 TOPMARGIN: 10px;
 LEFTMARGIN: 30px;
}

I think you want the padding/margin(s) of the page(s) to match.
Play with those numbers to see if that works out for you.

Dave

I got quite busy and was not able to attempt this till just now...

Followed your excellent explanation to a T but for some reason, I don’t see any changes in the position of the logo. I have reloaded the browser, tried some other browsers, changed all the numbers to 200px, changed the words to lowercase... but it doesn’t budge...

I am editing the theme.css in gallery/themes/matrix

What might I be doing wrong, I wonder?

Thanks again for your assistance Dave...

you are editing the right css
revert back to the original and try:

#gallery {
padding-left: 20px;
padding-top: 0px;
}

That did the trick Dave...

I can see that CSS is going to take some serious learning...

Thank you so much!

For my records, I ended up using:

#gallery {
padding-left: 30px;
padding-top: 10px;

Josh,

I just visited your site and I was automatically logged in as admin and I could make changes to your website.

Surely this is a serious security flaw?
