I am pretty novice for the record!

There is a big default picture on the top of content, that is on every page, which I cant figure out how to remove.

Where should I look??

Cheers
Callaghan.

Try your themes folder. There will probably be a folder called images. It's likely one of the images in there.

1st is a great idea - funnily enough I realised right after I posted I could delete it from there - however, I don't want to do that yet, I want to find out how to change it so I can upload a new photo in its place - I am beginning to think however that somehow the picture was built into the theme?

I contact the paid service support - no response as of yet.

It's not in configure either, I definitely checked there!

Any other insights??

Try going to Administer > Site building > Themes and clicking the "configure" link for your theme. There will probably be a "Logo image settings" section which you can use to select a different image.

If that doesn't seem to work, why not contact the person(s) who made the theme? You are their paid customer, after all.

create a new image file with whatever you want there. name it the same name with the same extension (ie jpg or png or whatever) as the original image. Delete the old one and put the new one in it's place. That will change the image.

Use firefox firebug tool to know the location of image file on server. After finding that just through your image with same name (as other user suggested) and this will override the existing image.

Hey - yeah I know where it is on the server!

Good advice as well, I figured I could do that - Replacing it.

It's bloody annoying that it's on EVERYPAGE though.

Support hasn't replied which is even more annoying, I sent off another email.

Any more suggestions? I am beginning to think it's built into the theme - stupid as that sounds, especially for a paid theme.

Cheers
Callaghan.

If its the same image --than replacing it will change it on every page (hoping they used the same name for image). If not check do you have page.tpl.php and page-front.tpl.php on server.

Also if possible put the link to the theme that you purchased.

You are right, but what I meant was - I don't want it on SOME pages, most in fact. I don't want the thing there at all, except maybe the home page or the odd page, but in general its quite annoying!

Sure, the link is here: http://www.hypertemplates.com/templates/22334.html

Cheers mate!

Ok I think I got you what you are saying. But let me confirm it...

You want to remove the image which is at top of every page (like the headphone image in template demo).

If yes than you can get rid of it in two ways...

a) from template i am seeing its just a CSS and background image given to it..

Open you style.css file your theme folder and get rid of following code
bg-pic {
background:transparent url(images/p1.jpg) no-repeat scroll left top;
padding-top:240px;
}
(assuming they have used same code for your theme also)

b) secondly you can go in your page.tpl.php file and get rid of the div section which contain class = "bg-pic"

One more suggestion.

If you want it to appear on some pages than better make that part as block. Define region for it and you will have full control over its placement.

(Check your block list and make sure it not a block by default. )

Thanks

Hey dude

Cheers!!! I will have a go at these things, fingers crossed it works!

mate... you are bloody brilliant!!!

Option A worked great. The coding wasn't the exact same, however I removed it and uploaded it to the server and now the picture is GONE!

.bg-pic { background:url(images/p1.jpg) top left no-repeat; padding-top:240px;}

In future - I am not sure how to do what you said as for picture in blocks, but I can just upload pictures in content under HTML!

Website looks much better now, thanks mate~!!
