Hi all,

For my company i have to brand the sharepoint site. Which means
providing the site with 'our' look and feel. (logo's etc.)

I wonder what the best and easiest way is to do so. Now i'm working in
..css for changes. But i can also change themes. Can i also add themes
to the existing ones and how do i do that. Or isn't this the right way
to do this. Do they have a relation with the ows.css file or do they
use other .css files. If so which ones.

You see , i'm really trying but i can't just all figure it out!

b.t.w. i have read the technical article on msdn about branching but it
didn't really help me. I need people who have done a similar thing.

Many thx in advance, Joost

Hi,

You can customize the look and feel by using MS Front Page and adding
your own CSS file. The best way is to create a document library on
portal and upload SPS.css with your company name, attach it by using
SiteSetting, then whenever you modify the css it will reflect the
change on the portal, and if you want to add any images like logo etc,
you can also upload in the same library, in this case whenever you need
to replicate the same change across multiple portals or for other
projects, it completely portable.
Theme can be applied on WSS site, so its limited.
