Fonts, basic changes

03 Feb 2011, 00:31

Hello,
Just downloaded Imagevue today and had a few quick questions which would be great to get some help with.
I know absolutely no CSS whatsoever. I need to change my fonts to Helvetica, with alternates of Tahoma, Gil Sans, Arial, any sans serif. If someone could take a moment and *specifically* instruct me, it would be most appreciated! I have copied the "White" template and have modified it. Knowing exactly where to change the Size would also be useful. I spent about 2 hours rooting around in the CSS but was not sure exactly how to safely make these alterations, and I could send days trying to learn this basic task. Your help is greatly appreciated!
The other item which I imagine is in the same CSS area, is that the word "Menu" is CENTERED in the Menu-- and its important that it be justified Left-- just like all the other text in the Menu. Please let me know how this is possible. Again, appreciate your help! and am enjoying learning Imagevue

As specified in your other topic, you need to edit your theme CSS stylesheet. Go to admin -> themes -> edit your theme -> edit theme stylesheet. If you can not edit theme, you first need to create a new theme from one of the existing ones, so that you can edit it.

Fonts are set like this throughout the Stylesheet:
Code
font-family: "Optima Regular", Candara, "Lucida Grande", "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
The gallery will select the first font if it exists for the visitor, if not it will move to the right to the next font until it finds a font that the visitor has. Simply insert your fonts here ... Fonts with two words in them need to be embraced by quotes, like "Lucida Grande". Single-word fonts like Arial, do not need this ...
