Homepage customisation points

1. Your logo

This is the logo for your Alaveteli install. It might be the same as your organisation's logo, or it could be an independent logo for your Alaveteli site. Ideally it will be a 550×88px PNG.

2. Primary colour

This is the main colour that runs throughout the site. Its mostly used in the banner and to enhance some other interface elements. You can either provide us the colour code (Hex, RGB, HSL) or just tell us the general colour and let us pick for you.

3. Banner image

This can be anything you like – an illustration, photograph or a plain gradient . If you don't have anything in mind, we like to use pictures of mountain ranges close to your country. If you're providing a banner, it should be at least a 1400×632px JPG.

4. Secondary color

This is a colour we'll use for emphasis on some pages. It should complement the primary colour. If you don't have one in mind, we can pick something that will look great.

5. Background color

Usually the default is fine, but we can tweak it if you need us to.

6. Your alphabet

If you're using any non-English translations of Alaveteli, we'll need you to send us your alphabet in alphabetic order so that we can use it in place of the English alphabet on search pages.

Alphabet customisation

7. Facebook Logo

We'll need a 256x256 image to be shown next to pages from your site when shared on Facebook.
