There was a question on how to change the header image for the Joomla 1.6 template for JM-Rainbow. There are 2 ways to change your header image file. Do not do both, pick one. Either:
A. Upload file to the image directory: (Easiest way to do it)
1. Rename your new header image file to “header.jpg”
2. Login to your FTP manager to access your files
3. Go to directory ‘~/templates/jm-rainbow/images/’;
4. Rename the existing file ‘header.jpg’ in the images directory to be ‘header2.jpg’ – this is to keep a backup of the existing header image.
5. Upload your new header image file – ‘header.jpg’.
B. Rename the image file in your css:
1. Save your new header image file, example ‘myheader.jpg’
2. Login to your FTP manager
3. Go to your ”~/templates/jm-rainbow/images/’ directory and upload your new header image file
4. Edit the css file – ‘~/templates/jm-rainbow/css/jm-rainbow.css’
5. Go to the line:
background-image:url(../images/header.jpg);
6. Change it to:
background-image:url(../images/myheader.jpg);
After you save and refresh your website, you should see the new header image on your Joomla 1.6 website. Hope that helps!
I have not found successfully anywhere in the google jungle how to insert a background image for the entire page using beez20 on Joomla! 1.6.
Would you know how?

Hi Elaine,
I am new to Joomla and not a programer. Anyway I have to get my website running sao I reached also your useful side.
I have two main questions: [1] Is there a site where I can look and download (if I like) Templates for Joomla v1.6.3? [2] and where to look at the JM-Rainbow Template?
Elaine, I am sure we will read and hear from each other more on your side as it seems very useful. Thank you for now and wish you a good time.
Hi PoS,
There are lots of places to find Joomla 1.6 templates. You can google search it, or I’ll write a post later for you for all the Joomla 1.6 template providers.
Thanks again for your visit,
