Default Changing Colour Scheme

Had Xcart for a week nearly and still in the process of setting things up before going live replacing current software.

I've changed the colours to a more personalised view, but I'm stuck with 2 bits of code I cant seem to find.

First the Tab borders at top right of home page using colour detector it shows they are made up from a few colour codes which I just cannot find in the css skin file for love nor money, the second is the Orange header bar across the top of the featured products, again this is a 2 tone colour but I cant locate the colour codes to alter them to fit in with my colour scheme www.grabbitt-now.co.uk/xcart/home.php you'll see what I mean.

The buttons seem to be made up from gif files, am I right? and is it possible for me to change the colours of the buttons or do I need to make the buttons from gif's of the required colour?

Tried to look at your site but got a 404 error.

Yes, you are looking for .gif files. They are in the skin1/images directory. Just right click on them in the customer view and you'll see what the names are. Same with the buttons. Open them up in your favorite photo editing software, change the colors, and re-upload them.

Hi,
I was having the same problems finding those gifs. I found them, but how do I open them in a photo software to change the colors?

Thanks,

FTP is the host where your files are located. Just ask your hosting providers about the FTP login details. Search Google for any FTP client and use to download your files.
