A: To solve this open the php.ini file and change

Q: Why are these templates loading so fast?
A: The templates load fast because all the pictures are located outside the Flash file, and only if the user wants to see a certain picture by clicking on it's smaller thumbnail, the larger picture will be loaded into the Flash file.
In this manner you can have hundreds of pictures and still get a fast loading website.
Q: How do I replace the small pictures in the about, contact us , services, etc. sections?
A: This again can be done directly in the "text.html" file,
by simply changing the HTML code that refers to the respective picture, for example <img src="photo2.jpg"> all you need to do is to change photo2.jpg to a new filename, and make sure this picture is indeed uploaded to your we server.
Q: How do I replace the sound file?
A: The sound file are also kept external so you can simply replace the one we used with your own music, or you can remove the sound file if you don't want to hear any music at all.
Q: Does your template support other languages such as Spanish, German, France, Greek, etc.?
A: Yes, we support non-english languages. All you need to do is to save the text file in the UTF-8 format in Notepad. This will allow you to support all unicode characters.
Q: Does your template support symbols such as a ", or %, etc.
A: Yes, we support these special symbols as well. Please go to url_encoding.htm to read more on how such symbols are supported.
Q: How do I change the font size of the logo/header in the template?
A: In the text.html file you can set the font size in the following manner. &name1=<font size="20">Paul Rowson</font>
Q: I try to edit the FLA file but when I save the FLA I see many errors?
A: To solve this please copy the file to the HTML directory where all the other files are, as the SWF file needs to read the content from some other files in the html directory.
I use Flash CS3 / Flash CS4 and have done the above but still got a problem. When you want to edit the FLA file in Flash CS3/CS4 you need to make some additional changes to the FLA file (this is by now absolute for most templates)
Q: When I try to logon to the admin area it requests for a password and user id where can I find them.?
A: Please open the config.php file in notepad where you will see your username and password.
Q: Why can I not create any new categories.?
A: To fix this you need to set the permission 777 to for the "categories.mdb" file.
Q: I can not add or delete images.
A: Make sure you do not use UPPERCASES in your filename and file extension. On some web servers you can not load the same file twice, so you need to rename the file before uplaoding it again.
