Okay, that was quick.
here is the code that will mean every time you change the general style in the admin panel under styles, the welcome box will also change automatically.
Again sorry for the rough formatting of the code, nobody else usually sees my code.
Code:
<table width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" border="0" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[outerborderwidth]">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" height="21"><center><b>Welcome to our site.<b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1" class="alt1active"><center>Put your text here.>
</tr>
</table>
<BR>
I should of course explain.
Above you will see the following code
class="tborder" {this is simply the color and
weight* of the table border.}
class="tcat" {tcat is the css tag for the category strips in the styles menu}
class="alt1" {alt1 is the first alternating color in the styles menu}
"<font color="alt1active" {font color that matches the alternating color above}
*if you have the weight specified in the styles manager
If you look in the styles mangager you will see all the boxes giving you the option to change the colors and fonts of that particular item, in the bottom left hand side you will see the "CSS Selector" that is what you use to decide what color you will use.
Hope this makes sense!
