Adapting the templates:
A text editor can be used to adapt the templates. Various editors are available for free which can highlight html/css syntax, including Notepad++ or PSPad. To detect the RGB color values of existing logos or web sites, we recommend the freeware program Color Detector.
The template pages are generally divided into three areas; header, content, and footer.
Area | Description |
Header | Headlines and image/logo |
Content | The actual content of the page |
Footer | The bottom of the page |

These same areas are also to be found in the source code, which is a help for orientation when designing the page. The relevant areas that can be adapted are marked with /*Comment*/ (in the CSS part) and <!-- Comment --> (in the HTML part).
The page's layout and the color scheme are set near the top of the source code between the <style> tags.

The page's text content is entered into the area between the <body> tags.

The font and color of the text as well as the background color are easily adapted. Colors are set as hexadecimal RGB values.
