Not able to advance edit themes

I would like to make more advanced changes to the themes provided. For example, to change the font size (css), or colors. Id also like to add a short bit of text below the menu, etc.

I understand that the sitebuilder is not made for this, but is there anyway for me to edit the site outside of sitebuilder, to add the features I need?

Secondly, can I create and upload my own templates? How?

Kind regards.
 
Hi,

1) with regard to your own templates:

Sitebuilder 4.0 Template Creation Guide
ftp://download1.swsoft.com/SiteBuilder/4.0.0/doc/templates/en_US/html/index.htm
Here you can find documentation for building your own templates for SiteBuilder.

Additional info on Templates:
http://kb.swsoft.com/en/products/sitebuilderlinux/category135
SiteBuilder / Sitebuilder for Linux/Unix / Templates

2) as for the advanced customization:

Customizing Appearance of Sitebuilder Modules
ftp://download1.swsoft.com/SiteBuilder/4.0.0/doc/templates/en_US/html/index.htm

Also there is this article:
http://kb.swsoft.com/en/833
How are we able to modify the font size, color etc... within the modules, for example, the blogger module?
It is referring to the style sheet file 'style.css' for respective modules. As far as I can see on my SB installation, there many such files within SB:

> find /usr/local/sitebuilder/ -iname style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskClassicSilver/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/WinXPReloadedCompact/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskBlue/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/WinXPBlue/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/WinXPSilver/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskNature/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskViolet/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/LonghornYellow/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskSilver/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/LonghornBlack/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/WinXPOlivegreen/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskReflections/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/AquaCompact/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/LonghornAero/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/skins/PleskSea/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/ServiceFacade/style.css
/usr/local/sitebuilder/htdocs/ServiceFacade/4.0/style.css

It is my understanding that these .css files can also be modified.
Hope this helps a bit.
