You can find some nice replacement images for many of the default graphics here>>

Hi Nick ..thanks for your reply[img]http://forums.oscommerce.com//public/style_emoticons/default/mellow.png[/img] I had a look at the images, and remembered back when I originally changed the 2.2 install I used the 'remove default images' contrib.,which I still have on file, when my webhost deleted certain files, it looks like they came out of the folder images/default, images/icons, and images/infobox. I tried loading the specific files from 'remove default images' into the images/default folder, and also loaded 3 of the currency flag icons (named icon, icon(1), and icon(2)) that I had on file into the images/icon folder.
None of these uploads seem to have changed anything??...have I loaded them into the wrong place, how do I figure out where to load images to...perhaps understanding where they are called from would help me navigate and put in either an appropriate transparent blank gif or image. As an example , the main header gif image with my store name, where would I place that to have it show up again in new 2.3.1 upgraded install...thanks again for any help[img]http://forums.oscommerce.com//public/style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif[/img]

the logo in 2.31 is in .png format, its in the /images/ folder and is named store_logo.png

most (all) images for the public page are placed in catalog/images.
Pictures that are seen in the Admin control panel are in admin/images.

I suggest you download those two catalogs and go through the pictures inside.

Also check your catalog/stylesheet.css In there you'll find background- and header images' place and filenames.

Can someone show me where to change the Box Headings? I know in 2.2 it was in /languages/english.php, but for the life of me, I can't find it in 2.31.  Thanks in advance.

Nevermind, I found it.

How can I increase the width of my site so that I can add another product column from the backend and have it fit the way I want it. Any clues? what files have the original sizing?

You go to the beginning of this tread and read the first post and there you will see the web address for info on the 960grid system

is there a way to create templates by just using php echo $cart or $header, that would be easier than having to mess with all those codes on different files.

You dont expect people to read threads do you.  You will be expecting them to search for their problem before posting a question next.

Since this is for the design aspect, I thought I would mention a good starting place for background images, images, and buttons. This could give shop owners a good start point for design.

Most of all the images are royalty free.

How do I have image icons of all the categories with a row of latest additions at the bottom, instead of the whole main page filled with latest additions?

You can edit index.php or install Modular Front Page

[oxwivi]

Thanks for the link! I don't know enough web programming languages to make modifications in the source myself, so the addon is going to be a real help.

You can't have looked very hard...if you just go to the first post in this topic and start reading you will see how you can easily change box/button colors at the site...

If he, like myself, doesn't know web programming, won't be able to tell what exactly we can do in the files there. In the first place, are those blue bars images or something made with code?

Is there anywhere we can find sort of theme packs for osC?

It seems that some are to lazy to read the info themselves and need it spoon feed, so here it is...

You can find information, download new themes or create your own themes at www.jqueryui.com

And that is actually from the very first post in this topic!

[14steve14]

Also search the add ons section applicable for 2.3.1 and look for jquery.
