  Manager Tools - Color Picker Tool.


We have provided a tool to help you pick the colors you want for your Service.

Entering values into the color text box:

The color input box will accept two different types of entry. Firstly, you may enter the name of the color you would like. The color input box will accept any of the word-color values shown at the bottom of the page.

The other most common way of expressing color is through the hexadecimal (base-16) number system. Hexadecimal numbers should always be entered starting with a '#'. For example '#ffffff' is white. See below for examples of hexadecimal color codes.

  Using the color-picker tool:

The color-picker tool is launched when you click on the icon shown above in your manager.

By moving your mouse over the displayed color-palette you will notice that you can preview the color in the bottom of the window. Clicking on a color that you like will set it in the picker. To save it to your manager page click 'Save and Close'. These colors are defined by a hexadecimal code. You can learn this code and input it manually into the color input box when using the same color repeatedly. Or just write it down to ensure you always use the same hexadecimal code.

  Font Style Picker Tool


In order to create the look and feel you desire for your site, you will doubtlessly need to set the style of your titles, text, and links. We have provided a font style picker for you to facilitate this process.

  You will see that you always have the option to enter your font style values manually but when deciding on your values, using the font style picker can be very useful. By clicking on the font style picker icon you will launch a new small window that includes the option to pick your

  • Font Face
  • Font Size
  • Font Color
  • and Font Style

As you select the various different options you will be able to preview the look you are creating in the box at the bottom of the window.

When you have achieved the look you want, click 'Save and Close'.

  Photo Picker Tool


The Photo Picker Tool is a very handy tool when linking to online images for your Service. This tool allows you to access photos that you have stored in your Photo Center Service

  By clicking on the Photo Picker icon you will launch a small window that will allow you to access the images you have stored online in your Photo Center.

Step one of using the Photo Picker prompts you to select which of your albums you would like to use. Once you have done this, the images stored in the album you have selected will appear so that you may select one for use in your service. The Photo Picker will automatically enter the URL for your image into the input box on your manager page.

You can also enter manually a URL to an online image stored elsewhere

NOTE: You can not link to files on your hard drive. They must have a URL (web address i.e. "www.your.com/file.gif").

When you have entered the image URL's that you want you can use the   Verify URL icon to make sure that you are linking correctly to your image.

Don't forget to click 'Save Changes' at the bottom of your page!

  Verify URL Tool


The Verify URL tool allows you to check to ensure you have entered a valid URL to the image you are trying to link to your service.

  By clicking on the Verify URL icon you will launch a small window that will correctly display your image if the URL is correct.

If your image URL is incorrect you will see a broken image icon and a message that says "Image Verification Failed". Check your URL and try again.

If the image failed to load, and the URL is valid then it is likely that your website hosting company does not allow the remote loading of images.
