Introduction

The idea behind the Elated PageKits is that you can either use the ideas here as is, and develop them from our startpoints, or you can take the bits that you need and customise them for your own use. We hope you'll also find the PageKits educational. Obviously, to make the best use of them you'll need to know some basic HTML.

You should be able to edit the PageKits in a wide range of web editors like Dreamweaver and FrontPage, though all will behave in different ways. An image editor will also be useful (e.g. Adobe Photoshop)

About This PageKit

This PageKit uses CSS for its elegant layout, and the only images in the design are the photos and the background gradients for the page background and pink box. It's easy to change the highlight colour (hence the name!) for the PageKit using mostly just the CSS.

All the positioning and design elements are contained within the two style sheets in the "css" folder. One creates the layout and colours (style.css), and one deals only with the menu (style_menu.css). The HTML files only contain basic markup and content, making for a nice clean HTML page to edit when adding content.

Hints & Tips

The font size and face are controlled by a style sheet linked to from the pages (style.css). If you want to change all this open up style.css in a text editor (eg Notepad) and edit the code to be whatever you want for colours, links etc, being careful to preserve the syntax.

All the gradients for the PageKit are single-pixel wide images, created in Photoshop and exported as Gif files. These provide a sense of depth and swankiness to the design. To change them, you'll need to create new images witha different gradient. The easiest way to do that is to open the original Photoshop files available for download from the ELATED site and re-colour the existing gradients before cropping and exporting new images.

The menu is created from a standard HTML list element. All the styling is managed from within the CSS.
