A Different Background On Every Page! |

Have you ever wanted every page on your site to be unique? Well now it's possible! Simply by using the built-in Joomla menu image you can assign that image as the background of the page! Use a default image that is set to all pages and then apply a unique background image to any page you wish. This perfect for the Sea of Glass template since its completely transparent!
Please note this feature can only be used with the S5 No-MooMenu and S5 Suckerfish menu.
Example:
Compare the current page you are on to the homepage, you will notice the backgrounds are different in height. Since we only have the slideshow module published on the homepage we created another background image that has a shorter area of wood in it and applied this image to every other menu item.
Default Background Image:
The default background image (located in the template configuration area) is the image that will be used if no menu image is assigned to a page. If you would like to have a unique background on a page simply apply a menu image to that page.
Creating a background image:
Try to keep your image size between 50k and 120k; using an 8 bit png or low quality jpg will help. How do I set the background color? You can set the background color to any web-color you would like through the template configuration!
How do I get my images on the menu?
Step 1.
Upload your images to the "images/stories" image folder via ftp.
Step 2.
Then assign them to your menu items under the Joomla menu item adminstration. Just click on the menu item and you will see this below. In Joomla 1.5 this option is under "Parameters - System"

This month we decided to create a 100% transparent template to give you unlimited background options. As first introduced in the Smart Blogger template, we have included the option to choose a custom background for each page! For the first time we introduce our new sub text option for the S5 Menu system. You can easily add your text for each menu link in the configuration area of the template.
We are pleased to announce the release of the S5 Slideshow Advance and a reintroduction of the S5 Horizontal Login fully transparent in all browsers including IE6.
