Thank you for purchasing my theme. If you have any questions that are beyond the scope of this help file, please feel free to email via my user page contact form here. Thanks so much!
This theme is a fixed layout with many variations of layout on main page and on subpages. All of the information within the main content for page area is nested within a div with a class of "content". There are eight different home pages with their own sliders. The three columns content for main page are within divs with classes named "cont", "sidebar", "col1", "col2". The sidebar for all the subpages content is within a div with a class of "sidebar". The main content for the subpages is within a class of "cont", it also contains two more classes for 2 columns in it "col1" and "col2". Here is the sample of general structure for main page.
Here is the sample of general structure for subpages.
If you would like to edit the color, font, or style of any elements for each color theme in these columns, you would do the following for selected theme in the css file "style-orange.css", "style-lime.css", "style-red.css", "style-pink.css" etc. :
a { color: #someColor; }
If you find that your new style is not overriding, it is most likely because of a specificity problem. Scroll down in your CSS file and make sure that there isn't a similar style that has more weight.
I.E.
.col1 a { color: #someColor; }
So, to ensure that your new styles are applied, make sure that they carry enough "weight" and that there isn't a style lower in the CSS file that is being applied after yours.
I'm using twenty sixth CSS files in this theme, each one for its color theme "style-orange.css", "style-lime.css", "style-red.css", "style-pink.css", "style-green.css", "style-blue.css" etc. and "style.css". Each file name is for personal color theme. There are 25 styles for color variations in this theme: (orange, lime, black, blue, green, magenta, silver, purple, sky-blue, golden, pink, emerald, violet, deep-blue, dark-red, light-brown, dark-green, red, brown, yellow, dark-violet, metallic-blue, light-beige, bordo, ocean) and the last style.css is for main layout. Those files contains some general styling, such as anchor tag colors, font-sizes, etc. Keep in mind, that these values might be overridden somewhere else in the file.
Each file is separated into sections using:
/* -------- RESET/GLOBAL -------- */ some code /* ==================== Default Form Elements ==================== */ some code /* ---------------- General Structure ------------------ */ some code /* -------- header ----------*/ some code etc, etc.
If you would like to edit a specific section of the site, simply find the appropriate label in the CSS file, and then scroll down until you find the appropriate style that needs to be edited.
This theme imports 19 Javascript files.

I've included 71 sliced psds with This Theme (25 color variations * 2 different pages types) + 7 home pages layouts + 13 subpages + 1 small PSD with arrows:
If you'd like to change the elements for pages, just open necessary psd file in Photoshop, make the adjustments, and then save slices in their format (i.e. .gif, .jpg, .png) into folder with images of necessary color theme.(only chose 'File'->'Save For Web' option in Photoshop) Do the same for all .psd files for each color theme.
I've used the following images, icons or other files as listed.
Once again, thank you so much for purchasing this theme. As I said at the beginning, I'd be glad to help you if you have any questions relating to this theme. No guarantees, but I'll do my best to assist. If you have a more general question relating to the themes on ThemeForest, you might consider visiting the forums and asking your question in the "Item Discussion" section.
