How to make white boarders of product image(s) transparent

Hi,

I have two questions.

First, What steps do I need to take to change the product image border color in JM Deco? I have tried to modify the image border color for product images in JM Deco from white to transparent (see image below). Unfortunately, I have not been able to make the appropriate changes and I would like to make the border color transparent if possible. If transparent is not possible, I would like to change the color to something closer to the background image color.

Second, which file do I need to modify to update the alt attribute (see image below) for the cart image? I have tried to locate the file to no avail and need to get this information updated for obvious reasons.

Hi tony,

1) To remove image borders you can open the file of skin/frontend/default/jm_deco/css/theme.css looking for this css
HTML Code:

.category-products li.item img, .catalog-listing img {
  background: none repeat scroll 0 0 [URL=http://www.joomlart.com/forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=131313]#131313[/URL]
  border: 1px solid [URL=http://www.joomlart.com/forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=252525]#252525[/URL]
  padding: 4px;
}

change to

HTML Code:

.category-products li.item img, .catalog-listing img {
  background: none repeat scroll 0 0 [URL=http://www.joomlart.com/forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=131313]#131313[/URL]
 
  padding: 4px;
}

2) To change the alt attribute as mentioned you open the file of app\design\frontend\default\jm_deco\layout\catalog .xml looking for this xml tag

HTML Code:

 <action method="setImgAlt" translate="alt" module="catalog"><alt>Our customer service is available 24/7. Call us at (084) 912-939-475.</alt></action>

and change the text as you want.

Thanks for the help, Sherlock. The attribute instructions worked out very well. However, the borders I’m speaking of are different from the borders you’re speaking about. I was talking about the big white borders generated by Magento for images that are not default size. Fortunately, I found the answer to my question in the Magento Forum at http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/23607/. For anyone else wanting to know…

To change the background color you can rewrite app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Product/Image.php and fit $_backgroundColor to your needs
