Home

Your homepage should contain the most important and up-to-date information of the website. You should not, however, make the homepage extremely cluttered. Keep it to the point. And, if you want to go into detail, you can always link to your other pages in your website to provide more information.

To Edit the Graphics/Colors on this Template

Top Banner = banner.gif file it is 770 x100 pixels.  This banner should have the name/logo for your organization.  It will carry through on all of the internal webpages

Second Photo bar = stripe.jpg. This banner only appears on the main page.  It is also 770x120 pixels.  This is the place where you jazz up the main page on your website.  This should be a graphic or photo collage that represents your organization.  You can see two examples of this on the websites we designed.
  
Website Colors The colors on this website are edited in the style.css file not in the webpage.  The hexidecimal codes for the colors are as follows:

  • Light Pink (used for backgrounds and some text) = #f4cfcf
  • Dark Pink (used for visited links) - #c10077
  • Red (bottom bar and the first heading) = #ab3232
  • Purple (bottom bar, backgrounds, and text) = #4b2361
  • White = #ffffff
  • Orange (used for roll-overs in NCLAC page, not included in this page, if you decide to incorporate them into your page this is their color) = #f6a01a
  • Black = #000000

To change the colors, open up the style.css file in mozilla composer.  You can use the Edit - Find and Replace function to search for the codes above and replace them with your new colors.  The new colors will appear on all of your webpages.  If you are unfamiliar with hexidecimal codes for color, you can find hexidecimal color codes for many colors on visibone's website: http://www.visibone.com/colorlab/big.html

Also, you should not display the pictures featured in the example in your own website unless unless you ask for permission. The credits for the pictures are as follows:
