    Hi and thanks for the great theme. My question is very simple, but I just can't manage to find it.

    Where can I insert a favicon?

    And how can i change the yellow line in the middle? I have managed to change the look all over, but the yellow line that divides the two lines of posts on the front page I can't find!

    Thankful for all your help!

  2. hi Miklo, I guess you use Arthemix Bronze?
    Icon for your site: This theme does not just give you a standard favicon.ico. Most sites display an icon found in the root of your site. Just place your favicon.ico in your root folder (wp-config.php should be there).
    The header.php of Arthemix points to this root folder like this:

    <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/ico" />
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />

    Firefox will not update this icon easily, but just loading it once does the trick. Go to your site and add /favicon.ico at the end of your URL to show your icon if there is.

    The yellow line dividing the posts is actually just one yellow point in images/brdrdfloat2.gif
    To change the color edit this file and just change this yellow dot.
    To remove it at all open style.css and look for:
    .brdrd{background:#FFF url(images/brdrdfloat2.gif) repeat-y center top;}

    change this to:
    .brdrd{background:#FFF;}

    Did it help? PLEASE BACKUP A COPY FIRST BEFORE CHANGING!!

    Yes, it did! Regarding the yellow line; now that I make your changes, the line dissapears and I have a white background. But no divider, though. So I will just edit the color in Photoshop, and keep it.

    Thanks so much for your help, now I will check your reply on my other qst.
