== How do I replace the 'bird' image on the website ==
 
There are several ways to change the image of the 'bird' on the standard Cumulus web page. You will need an [[FTP tool]]
* The simplest way is to upload a new picture to the images folder of your website; the file should be called picture.jpg. Please ensure the images not too large and bear in mind it will appear on the bottom left of the page; the site data may cover some of the image. As a guide, the default image is 600 x 450 pixels.
* Secondly, you may upload an image using your own file name. Edit the weather.css file and look for the line <tt>background-image: url(images/picture.jpg);</tt> around line 9 and adjust as necessary. Upload the edited css file to the website
* if you wish to remove the image completely edit the weather.css file and remove the line <tt>background-image: url(images/picture.jpg);</tt> Upload the css file to to the website
