Change your site's look and colors

#Try a look

Open Style. Under Looks, a look changes the whole design in one click: lettering, page color, buttons and which blocks go dark or carry your color. Your words and photos stay.

The looks are Heritage (classic and established), Gallery (high end, lots of space), Craft (warm and handmade), Neighborly (friendly and easy), Industrial (bold and technical), Clean (modern and calm) and Night (dark and moody). After you pick one, press Keep it, or Go back to return to the look you had. Undo also puts the old look back.

#The top of the home page

Where Style shows Top of the home page, pick Photo (the words over a full width photo), Split (beside a framed photo) or Center (centered on the photo).

#Set your colors

Click a swatch to pick a color, or type its HEX code, such as #1f6f5c, in the box beside it. Under Colors on each background, you can set the words, links and buttons used on Tint, Dark and Main color blocks; each is adjusted until it reads on that background. Auto puts one back.

1. Main color: buttons, links and highlights.
2. Text color: headings and body text.
3. Second color: optional. Until you set it, your main color is used.
4. Page background: a light color behind every page.
5. Heading color: optional, kept readable.

#Light or dark

Under Light or dark, pick Light or Dark for the whole site. Switch on Let visitors switch to put a small button in the corner of every page that lets visitors change it themselves.
