with shopping cart designer, it’s easy to create a theme that complements the online store you created in shopping cart creator. here’s how it works: click the page element you want to use (header, navigation menu, product and category areas, footer, and more), and then use the controls on the right to customize backgrounds, text and links, borders, and other properties. we made the process intuitive so you can pick it up easily and start editing and designing shopping cart creator themes quickly. the software is with you every step of the way, whether you need to make a few minor changes, overhaul an existing store design, or create something that’s all your own. shopping cart designer lets you make edits to the preexisting shopping cart creator designs. but what if you want to create something from scratch? no sweat. the program includes four blank layouts that provide the basic structure for an online store, but with no styling. fill in the blanks with your own images, colors, and borders until you’ve designed a theme that fits your unique vision for your web store.
the built-in export tool saves your themes directly to the shopping cart creator themes window. from there, just select your theme the same way you would select one of the predefined themes, and your custom design will be applied directly to your store. we also added a feature to shopping cart creator that allows you to open a theme directly in shopping cart designer. this is a great option for making quick changes to your design. behind the easy-to-understand user interface, shopping cart designer is hard at work creating a css file that styles your store. the cool thing is, all the program functions translate almost directly over to css, so if you ever decide to learn this language, you’ll already be familiar with many of the common variables. when you make changes to your theme, they immediately take effect in the wysiwyg workspace. this gives you more control over exactly how your design looks.
