Changing the look

We have our site up, but it looks rather plain.



Tikiwiki allows for different themes. There are a large number of built-in themes accessible through the admin interface. For how2why4.com, we'll use one of the built-in themes. Login as admin and select the admin interface.



Select "general" from the list of icons. We'll be back many times to this page as we load other features.



You can browse through the themes, but for how2why4.com, we'll select the white-blue-grey theme. It's got pleasing colors, good contrast, and a nice layout.



And click the change button.



The resulting interface makes the home page look like the following:



Users may also change the theme for themselves without changing the main theme. Other themes are also available at themes.tikiwiki.org

We still need to get some content on here with pictures. We'll do that in the next post.
