Notes

You can change the logo in the top left corner by changing the image location in the #container-wrap at the bottom of the CSS.

The curves and roundness only render in Firefox and Safari. In IE, the CSS attempts to make the fancy page title into a regular header so that the theme is not too squarish. On Opera, however, this cannot be avoided.

Very well done, Tim.

I like the idea of a personal logo at the top; it makes the feel of the website professional and comfortable.

Good luck!

I really like this theme! It's really organized and easy on the eyes. Sites that have lots of sharp contrasting colors wear on the eyes quicker. I hope your theme wins!!

Awesome

I really like this theme. The archive of Random Material is an awesomely done css site, as is LifesHandbook.

Woo! Yeaaaaah!

I for one think this is an awesome theme, Mr. Foster person who I have never before met and who has not paid me a large sum of cash in U.S. dollars to vote for this.

How do I upload logo?

ERPooler 05 Oct 2009 17:35

New to wikidot…like your theme but would like to insert my own logo. Where/how do I upload?
Thanks so much,
Eileen

Re: How do I upload logo?

rhombus p 11 Oct 2009 23:53

upload you logo to what ever page you want by clicking files at the bottom of the page. then get the url to it by clicking the info button. copy the url and then edit the part of the theme that looks like this

#container-wrap{
    margin-top:2em;
    margin-left:2em;
    background-color:#FFF;
    -moz-border-radius-topleft: 3em;
    -webkit-border-top-left-radius: 3em;
    background-image: url(http://themes.wikidot.com/local--files/articles-n-more/logodefault.png);
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

in the part where it says background-image:url(http://themes.wikidot.com/local--files/articles-n-more/logodefault.png); change the url to your own copied url.

hope this helps

Re: How do I upload logo?

Timothy Foster 12 Oct 2009 01:42

I made it easier to upload the image. On the bottom, there is this:

/* Insert Logo Image Here
========================= */
#container-wrap{
        background-image: url(http://themes.wikidot.com/local--files/articles-n-more/logodefault.png);
}

Change the URL to the image URL of your logo.

Hope this helps, and thanks!
