Hey guys,
I'm new here to SmugMug and to Dgrin and have a few question regarding my on going customization.

1- I made up a NavBar and wanted to change the font to match my banner. It worked except that it changed the font throughout the whole site. Is there anyway to control just the font in the navbar and not the rest. Also due to the font style the NavBar is a little too big for me. I've tried changing the padding numbers in the code, but doesn't seem to get smaller. Maybe I need to change font size, but how?

2- I've tried doing Devbobos tips to make "gallery pages" like Andy has or the other demo. This worked, except when I change the new "duplicate" page, it also changes the original homepage.

Ideally I'd like to have 3 seperate links to pages I call: "Exhibitions", Galleries", and "Services". Each one of these pages should be able to have up to 5 or six seperate smugmug "galleries". Also I've tried the Guestbook technique and can't get that to work right either.

My site in it's current state is: www.studiogucciardo.smugmug.com, if anyone wants to see what I've done.

Thanks in advance-
Jim

Add the font paramters to this. That font is not on most machines so no
one but you will see.

#navcontainer ul li a {
text-decoration: none;
padding: .0em 1em;
color: #fff;
background-color: #C0C0C0;
font-family: Comic Sans MS, verdana;
font-size: 100%;
}

btw, welcome to Dgrin

Not the way to go I think. What I'd do is link to each category
with it's galleries. That's already set up the way you want.


I think you have hide owner checked for your guestbook gallery, that
disables your CSS. Also make sure "custom" is checked for appearance.

Thanks Allen,
I think I 've worked out the Pages issue. It seems it was mostly my confusion in titling categories, but I was fiddling around last night and think I am going n the direction I want to go. If you go to my site now ( studiogucciardo.smugmug.com) click on "Exhibitions" you will see what I am trying to do.
Thanks for the info regarding fonts. I happen to like the zapfino font and it has been working on all other Mac users so far.
