Hi,
I'm new to Joomla so I hope I'm not posting an obvious question...

I've just installed "Big Picture" template for sportcube.me.

There's a background image all over the site says "Sample". How do I change it?

Thanks

Hello,

These images are located in the "images" folder located in the root of the Joomla folder.

Thanks but I use chrome build in developer tools. It's pretty similar to Firebug and since I'm not a pro web developer and only develop my own start-up site I don't wanna switch to Firefox.

Could someone just provide an answer to my question. I guess it pretty basic but I a newbie...

Hello,

On your FTP or File Manager for the site in the root directory there will be a /images folder which contains all the images that have the "Sample Text" on them. These are what replace the licensed images from our demo and need to be swapped out with your own images directly on the server.

If you are not familiar with the FTP or File Manager I would suggest contacting your host. Most hosts have a File Manager directly in the Cpanel which is essentially the same as FTP. It allows you to upload and change any sites files directly.
