        Template Customization
           1. Changing logo in header

        There are two ways to change logo image located on top of the template:
              1st way
        Just replace the t3_logo_light_17.png on your template folder with the one you want on the
        top of your site (rename the image file in png first). The folders path is:
        ...templatesbt_ariseimages.
              2nd way
        Open file: ...templatesbt_arisecsstemplate.css
           -   On line 324: Replace the name t3_logo_light_17.png by your logos name
           -   On line 326 and 327: Replace logos height and width here

           2. Changing logo in footer

        In administrator, go to Extensions -> Module Manager, find the position logo-footer, then
        upload your image logo (Logo footer is custom html module).

           3. Changing color theme

        The templates administration panel allows you to customize a lot of features regarding the
        template layout, color profile and other settings like file compressions. Once youve
        installed the template, the first decision you have to make is which profile you are going to
        use for your site.
        You can also select any of the other profile as your primary profile:
           -   Open the template's administration panel
           -   Click on the profile tab and scroll down to the advanced settings to use for your site
           -   Select the profile you want to use
        There are six profiles included in the template. A default profile is already loaded. This
        profile is the backbone of the template.
