Two possibilities:
– YOur browser is still showing the cached images
– You uploaded the new color images to wrong folder; old images still being show
Check using FTP that dates and times of the new images are changed in the correct folder
Can you post the site URL for us to have a look
You’re not editing the screenshots are you?

123milliseconds. I don’t quite understand what you mean sorry.
This is the site URL http://def.blackwolfbarcodeprint.com.au
No I wasn’t editing the screenshot. I installed the Martin theme in wordpress under the install theme tabs in the admin area.
I tried changing the green colour through editing the code but had no idea how to do it as when I changed colours it wouldn’t make a difference.
So I downloaded the zip file to my computer had a look and found the image files that it is using for the menu background (5 different files are used some solid green others a gradient green)
I opened up photoshop and opened up those 5 files and changed the colours to purple.
I then zipped the file again and tried to install it into wordpress by uploading it but it came up with an error saying “The uploaded file could not be moved to /home/blackwol/public_html/def/wp-content/uploads/2011/03”
If you are able to help me out that would be great as I am stuck at the moment as to how to change the colour. Even if it is not a gradient colour and just a solid colour that would be great as green is not part of the colour theme
Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.

Hi esmi
Sorry I am completely new to this. I am using wordpress and editing the website through my internet browser. Is the option of changing those permissions in there? I have not downloaded wordpress onto my computer.
Please see the link I gave above.

Ok so I have managed to change the menu colour finally by creating my new background colours as images and putting them in as a URL
I still have a part of the green showing and I have no idea how to change that. Can anyone see in the code where this would be?

You will find it in this css rule
.hsearch {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #74A016;
clear: both;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 5px;
text-align: center;
width: 930px;
}
The #74A016 is a solid green color.
