Customizing the templates easily

To make customizing the templates easy for everybody (even without HTML background), I added some items in the HTML coding so that you can change the color and font properties of most of the important elements. Below are the things that you can change simply by going to the Layout > Template > Fonts and Colors section in the Dashboard. From there, simply choose any items that you want to change and pick a new color or font from the dashboard on its right.

Example: You can see in these two templates, Kleen and KleenGreen, that you can modify a lot simply by using the Fonts and Colors dashboard without tweaking the HTMLs.

In most of the templates, the link only changes color when your mouse hovers over it. I use the variable Hover Link Color to control the hovered link colors. But, before 22/5/2007, I used the variable Visited Link Color to control the Hovered Link Colors.

In some cases, the fonts or colors won't changed after you've changed them in the Layout page. That's because I've turned them off in the HTML code so that it doesn't affect the overall design. If you still want to change it, then you have to go into the HTML code.
