Custom Settings

You can customize your order forms to look like your site by uploading a graphic image that becomes the header of your order forms. If you don't have a graphics program, don't worry. ProWebWare.com will create basic header for you using your merchant name.

The default custom settings should only be used if all of your product will use the same graphics and colors. Leave this section blank if you sell multiple products, each with its own set of graphics.

You can enter any color (i.e. black, navy, green) or hex code to customize the border of the tables and the background color. You can also upload background image which will override the background color.

To upload images, click "Browse," locate the image on your hard drive, and click on the file. The full path to the file will be displayed in the form field. Click "Update Product" to save changes and upload your images.

Note: images must be in gif, jpeg, or png format to display correctly in a browser.
