The most basic co-branding is accomplished by changing the logos, icons, colors, and visible text in Portal Interface. These attributes are specified in styles.xml and messages.xml that you copied to the new co-brand directory and in css.css that you copied to the new co-brand style subdirectory.
The settings you change in these resource-specific files override the settings in the onepage default files located in \onepage\fw\baseApps (or /onepage/fw/baseApps on UNIX). You can also make changes to the master configuration file global.properties.xml, located in
Enter color values as hexidecimal code rather than color
names; for example, “FFFFFF” is white. Use a Web-safe

When you replace Enterprise Portal’s default images, icons, or tabs across all resources for an installation, put the new graphics in the appropriate subdirectory on %SYBASE%\EAServer\Repository\WebApplication\onepage\sy_images Windows and in $SYBASE/EAServer/Repository/WebApplication/onepage/sy_images/ on UNIX.
To replace the images only for a particular resource, create an images directory within the co-brand’s subdirectory and put a copy of the new files there. When you edit styles.xml, you reference the location from which you want that co-brand’s images pulled.
