Hi there,
I love this menu but I would like my own site colours to prevail here. How can I change them. By that I mean how do I produce 2 gif files (with my active and default options) to replace the blue ones.
Thanx
Dave

Sorry that was rude of me - should have read the sticky.
script:
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/csslibrary/item/jquery_drop_line_menu/

I haven't installed it yet - so it's not "problematic" but my site is not blue (anywhere) so I want to change it to look like my existing menus colour scheme.
My site is here: http://205gticovers.com.
The menus are a little primitive and I wish to use this dropdown as it looks so good.
regards
Dave Hickman

It's okay :D.

You would have to download the following images and change them on your computer, do you want me to do it for you? If you do, please tell me what color to change it to.

Hi,
I wanted to know which program/utility to use though?
(Good luck ? - surely it can't be that difficult can it?)

Oh - I'm sorry. If I were to do something like this I would either use:
http://www.photoshop.com/ (photoshop online)
http://www.getpaint.net/

If you don't have the program or know how, I can do it for you pretty quickly - are you sure you don't want me to do it for you? Good luck.

Edit:
Maybe these two images will fit your site better?

Hi - thank you for response. I had thought of Photoshop, but in the end I used Paint.net as it's easy to use and the effects plug-ins are great. Thank you for your considered response.
regards
