Several people have asked for a tutorial on changing template designs, here is a beginning tip

If you are using the Moveable Radio – blue theme and you want to change the heading or banner colors from blue to pink, here is how you do it:

Look for the #banner CSS Style code in your #hometemplate which you can find here from within radio: http://127.0.0.1:5335/system/pages/prefs?page=3.2, the #banner isn’t that far from the top of the template

 #banner {
    font-family:verdana, arial, sans-serif;
    <font color=”blue”>color:#FFF;</font>
    font-size:20px;
    font-weight:normal;
    border-bottom:1px dotted #000000;
    border-top:3px solid #0045AD;
    <font color=”red”>background:#0066FF</font>;
    padding:15px;
    text-transform:uppercase;
    letter-spacing: .2em;    
    }

you want you change the font color of the background where i’ve shown in red, the pink color that seems to work best is #F5E0F5

also you’ll probably need to change the text color (shown in blue above) to the original background color of #0066FF

or you can just copy and paste this over the one currently into your template:

 #banner {
    font-family:verdana, arial, sans-serif;
    color:#0066FF;
    font-size:20px;
    font-weight:normal;
    border-bottom:1px dotted #000000;
    border-top:3px solid #0045AD;
    background:#F5E0F5;
    padding:15px;
    text-transform:uppercase;
    letter-spacing: .2em;    
    }

(when I find more time I’ll sit down and write more tips on theme designs)
