You have your homepage set to white theme. Try setting it to default.

I am sorry for being dense, but how do I change the theme on the homepage? I went to themes in the customize tab, but I fear that I will wipe out all that I have done in the customization thing. I don't want to lose what i have now, only make the background black.
New to all this. sorry, gotta ask the silly questions so that I learn.
Best,
Lynn

Logged in, there is a themes button to the right of the control panel button on your homepage. Click it and select default then save.

The "themes in the customize tab" will assign a theme to your whole site. Each page also has a theme button and it will override the control panel one for that page only. If the individual page theme is set to default the one in the control panel will apply.

Does anybody know how to change the logo behind the slideshow on my page which is displaying on the begining of the slideshow? Also, how do I make the slidshow random so every time same customoer visits my site they will see a slideshow starting with a different picture ?

Add the randomStart.

...
transparent: 'true',
splash: 'http://www.smugmug.com/img/ria/ShizamSlides/smugmug_black.png',
showLogo: 'false',
randomStart: 'true',

Thanks, I am figuring it all out EXCEPT... that themes button does not actually appear on my page when i am logged in. it seems that two were overlaid on each other. when i can click it, the list drops down, then disappears immediately. I have been able to change all of the galleries to the black background with banner, but the front page is kiliing me.
Will I have to remove my nav bar to fix this? Actually none of those smugmug given nav buttons work: they kick me all back to the weddings gallery. ?
thanks

I couldnt' find anything in your CSS that might cause it. Try clearing your cookies.

In your banner CSS is this a png or gif?
background: url(http://www.lynnfisherphotography.com/photos/364044695_CHZhb-O.gif) src='http://www.lynnfisherphotograpy.smugmug.com/photos/5095050_XTzww#307990759_Bshmm-O.png');


Remove this at the bottom of your header box. It's about the same area of your
control buttons on the page so might cause it.

<a href="//lynnfisherphotography.smugmug.com/weddings">


Change these two

/* html only page for gallery About Me */
.gallery_About Me .nophotos {
display: none;
}
.gallery_About Me .pageNav {
display: none;
}

to this, the gallery number is used.

/* html only page for gallery About Me */
.gallery_5520415 .nophotos h3 {
display: none;
}
.gallery_5520415 .pageNav {
display: none;
}

You are missing a closing div below your nav html

<div id="navcontainer">
<div align="center">
<ul>
...
<li><a href="/gallery/5850254_j3KH6" title="Send W. Dabrowski an E-mail">Contact</a></li>
</ul>

I want to add new pictures to my homepage slideshow. I tried adding the pics to my slideshow gallery but they dont show up on my slideshow. There are blank spots in the slideshow where i think the pictures should be showing up. Can anyone help?

You're using the old no-longer-supported javascript slideshow. You need to remove that and switch to the flash slideshow.

Page that shows how to add new show - http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow.

Thanks Denise, I think i did everything i was supposed to but i think i'm missing something. The slideshow is going over the bottom of the page and there is some sort of line going across the top of the slide. What did i miss? Lacey

Clean this up first, then will look and see what is not closed.

Remove these lines in your bio.

<script>
Rest of slideshow code.
</script>


Remove the extra } from your javascript.

...
SM.PhotoBar.config.position='bottom';
}
function hasPath(sPath)
...


Edit: remove the height line in this, your bio show is covering your footer.

#bioBox.box {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 600px;
border: none;
height: 400px;
background: none;
}

Thanks Al that helped. Now i would like to make the photo's random. And I would also like to make it so that all the pictures show to be the same size with a wide border like on Photoscape Design's page. Can you help. Also the pics dont seem to be quite centered on the page. Thanks Lacey
