So I had already installed a theme way back in like week 2 or 3. For some reason I thought we had to back then.
I installed a theme called Dark Blue. Basically you just download a zip file, go to extensions in the Joomla menu and upload it and Joomla does the rest. Then you have to select that theme to make it active inside the template manager and that’s it.
I did make a few changes to the css file, as in I changed the background header graphic to something else but it didn’t match well to the rest of the site. So I put it back to normal. But I did change the logo itself to my own simple logo that I made. You can find the spot to upload images for this inside the template/images folders. You put your logo in there and rename it inside the html for the template so that the template can find your logo.
I remember it not being very hard at all. I”ve been very pleased with how easy Joomla makes everything and its all very straightforward.
I would like to make a few more changes to this template though, I want to increase the fontsize as I think it’s too small and a little hard to read.
