Before you begin...
- You need a RedCritter account if you don't have one already.
- You need a high-res or tileable JPG or PNG image to use as the background of your Theme.
Step 1: Log in
Visit redcritter.com to login to your RedCritter Profile.
Step 2: Customize Theme
Click the gear on the top right of your Profile to show a list of settings, then click Customize theme.
Step 3: Choose Existing Theme
If you would like to use a different standard theme, click any of the options available to see how they look.
Step 4: Upload Custom Background
Click the upload custom background button and select the image on your computer you want to use.
Step 5: Design Custom Background
You have the options to stretch, tile or align your image.
A stretched image will fill the entire background. A tiled image will repeat infinitely in every direction. An aligned image requires selecting a specific location on the screen.
Step 6: Change Background Color
If you are aligning your background image, you may need to change the background color to match your image. Click the colored square to pick a new color, or paste in a custom hex code.
Step 7: Check your New Theme
When you're done designing, that's it! Your new custom theme should be active.
If you want to make changes, go back to Step 4.
All Done!
