Hello,

I highly recommend using CSSViewer for Chrome, where you can hover over CSS elements on a page. Once hovered on a CSS element, CSSViewer will indicate what specific effect that CSS element is producing on the page.

Indigo is currently producing the header/footer background by using the background-color tag and by using an image in the ./img folder.

No problem. The 4 image files in ./img/ ./styles/Indigo/img are responsible for a lot of the background colours:

bg.gif
bgfooter.gif
bgmain.gif
topleft.gif

Sorry, the image files should be located in /styles/Indigo/img and not /img.

As I'm not nearby PC, I cannot tell you exactly what parts to modify. However, all effects on hovering within CSS will be defined as [TAG]:hover{ e.g.
Code: Select all
a:hover{
color: #FFFFFF;
}

When you say "As I'm not nearby PC", How do you post to the forum?
