    HI Daniel – I really REALLY like the Cover WP theme – -I just don’t like the colors so after reading this forum for a few months, I decided that I am going to try my hand at customizing.

    I’ve located all the images and I think I can do it but I have one newbie question

    Do I have to make the image in gradient colors or does it somehow magically happen because of the coding in the theme (all I was going to do was open your image, change the color and then add that color code in CSS)

    Thanks

    OK I wasn’t successful. I figured it all out I thought with firebug so I wanted to test it.
    I used firebug and found the image menu.png.
    I opened that file changed the color to black and FTP’s it overriding the menu png that was already there.

    Then I went in to my css and added this
    #nav
    {
    width:974px;
    min-height:33px;
    background:#000000 url(images/menu.png);
    }

    and the navigaton bar is still that yellow brown ) I don’t understand what did I do wrong?

    Thanks

    OK I sort of figured it out – the long name on the images is a good thing.

    I changed my nav bar and changed the other bars but – – – the area under featured, popular, headline and latest have a big block of color so my site is a mess.

    The reason I couldn’t originally change the nav bar was because of my permissions

    So I am sort of there but its still messed up

    The image featured.png holds the background of those areas.
