THEME MODIFICATION |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| 38 |
In the future I'd like to: |
If you feel like giving the theme a look of your own, I recommend: |
| 39 |
- make style/colour variations |
- replace the two graphic files head960 and foot960, keeping dimensions. |
| 40 |
|
- and/or change the text colors in the stylesheet style.css. |
