Probably the first thing you will want to do with your website is to alter the way that it looks, the easiest way to do this is to choose a site design, you can do this by selecting Templates from the menu and then selecting Site design. Look down the list and when you see a design you like click on apply this design (see figure 1.0), you will then be asked to confirm your selection so click on Yes, replace my current design with this one. That's it!
Now to view your new site design click on the name of your website in the upper right hand side of your administration area next to the account area button. This is a special link that will “refresh” the page and show you your website with its new design applied to it.
So what's next?
Well not only can you choose from a template, you can also choose from other options such as search and profile design, image packs and preset styles, they all work on the same principle as applying a design template, just pick the design you want to use and then click on apply. Its that easy.

Once you have designed your site, it is a good idea to create a backup of it using the backup wizard (Wizards --> Backup Wizard).
Note: Please make sure your dating website is not open in another tab or window as you may not see your changes being applied, it is a good idea to close the dating site before doing this (not your DIY-Dating administration area). Also if you are not seeing any changes please refer to this guide here.
