CREATE SKINS

What is skinning?

Skinning allows you to view the contents of our site in a layout that matches your own website. This allows users to seamlessly travel between your site & ours. We allow you to add your own custom header & footer to our page layout, & to alter other elements of our look & feel via stylesheeting. The 'last skin viewed' is stored in a cookie, so if a user comes back directly to the SafariNow site, they will still see your branding. You can see an example of a skin below:

How do I create a skin?

If you have not created a skin before, you can do so by clicking the add skin button on the Affiliate Zone page:
This will take you to the Create New Skin page. On this page, you can add your HTML code &/or CSS code for your skin:
Please Enter a Description for this Skin » This is purely for your benefit so that you can keep track of multiple skins.
Header HTML » Copy & paste your header HTML code in this section. Please make sure that you do not insert any <head> or <body> tags. If you are linking to an external stylesheet you can add the link above the HTML code.
Footer HTML » Copy & paste your footer HTML code in this section. Please make sure that you do not insert any <head> or <body> tags.
Page Body Width » At present we recommend that you set this to 800px (due to sizing constraints of our page contents).
Content Alignment » Choose left, center or right to display the page accordingly.
Advanced Stylesheet Settings » You can enter your CSS code here or link to your own stylesheet as described above.
Click the Save button at the bottom of the page when you are finished.

Please Note » the skin gets set on browser session start & remains until the browser session ends. If you cannot see your skin or the changes you have made to your skin, try closing the browser down & restarting (do not visit the SafariNow site before viewing your skin or our settings will be taken as the 'last skin viewed').
