A tutorial on adding and replacing backgrounds

From the page you wish the background changed select Edit background from the right hand column...

 

From the Background Edit Page select your Main Background From the choices listed

You will notice a preview of the background you can adjust the edge es in section two if you feel it necessary 

 

 

To check the font colours are OK and bright enough click on the box with the rainbop inside to bring up the colour control for the font this will change in real time on the sample so you can see how visual the fonts are.

 

 

By moving the black rectangle in the colour column, then refining the colour by mouse over and click to move the cross-hairs. This then gives you the ability to assess any colour you can imagine. Place the cross-hairs to the extreme top right for black and extreme lower right for white. This is the same system if you are using colour only backgrounds...  

 

 

 

In the right hand column are some advanced fixes that hide or show the edge line and adjust left spacing use only if its really necessary and you feel confident in your actions
