Add text to your homepage

This tutorial shows how to add text to your home page in different way

See http://www.toonkamer-webshop.nl

First go to catalog/view/theme/default/stylesheet and create a new style sheet.
(drag one to the left ,rename it and delete the text and put new in it)
I creates a style sheet named remko.css

Put text like here in it:

.homevetter{
color: #4f4f4f;
font-size: 50px;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
margin-top:20px;
margin-bottom:0px;
}
.homenieuw{
color: #4f4f4f;
font-size:20px;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
margin-top:50px;
margin-bottom:15px;
}
.footervetst{
color: #4f4f4f;
font-size: 25px;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}

Go to catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/header.tpl
and put: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="catalog/view/theme/default/stylesheet/remko.css" /> in it
Like:

<title><?php echo $title; ?></title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="catalog/view/theme/default/stylesheet/remko.css" />
<base href="<?php echo $base; ?>" />

Now go to catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/home.tpl
And put some text in it like:

<p class="homevetter">Frans antiek & brocante , art deco en industrieel. </p>
<p class="homenieuw">Nieuw binnen </p>

<?php echo $column_left; ?><?php echo $column_right; ?>
<div id="content"><?php echo $content_top; ?>

<H1><FONT COLOR="#4f4f4f"></FOND><strong>Landelijke en industriele tafels, hoge kasten, spiegels, art deco lampen en meer</strong></H1>
<p class="footervetst">Verkoop via deze webshop of vanuit onze winkel in Amersfoort. </p>

<FONT COLOR="#646464"></FOND>

The last line sets the color for the text back to black.
