Changing the graphics

If you'd like to select your own background graphics for the pages or add your

own logo on the first page, you first need to copy the new graphics files into the

POLARIS\WWWROOT\WR\USER\<site name> folder.

Note:

To ensure that the images you use will be compatible with all browsers and

are supported by the Web standard, we strongly recommend that your

graphics be in either the .jpg, .gif, or png file format.

In addition, do not use spaces in your graphic file name. For example,

birchtree.gif" will appear, but birch tree.gif" will not.

Once you place your graphics in the folder, select the Use Custom Graphics check

box (under Appearance) and click the Edit Graphics button. The Custom

Graphics setup page appears:

Sets the background image for

the main frame of the main page.

The Information, Web Links, and

help pages are not affected.

Sets the background image of the

toolbar for the search page.

Sets the image that appears in

the middle of the first page.

Once you specify the images you want to use, enter your password if necessary,

and click Save.
