IE does not like to render transparent PNGs. Check drupal.org for suggested fixes.

Thanks for your answer jim.
I have changed the logo to standart.
But that does not solve the problem and the subpages are displayed without any mistakes.

Here is an example of using the same theme as you original choice. Keep in mind that there are a number of steps to follow in their tutorial including cutting up the image into 4 slices, etc. It is some process, but will produce a nice result.

Have not looked into how bluemarine is set up. Some themes have a built in color selector. If not, one can just recolor all of the graphics that are built into the theme. Using PhotoShop or another graphics program will usually produce good results provided that the author of the theme used graphics for the look of the site.

Or you could luck out and find that all of the color choices are available in the theme's CSS. Just change out the required items for a color change.

Thank you for the ideas Jim !!
My main problems are the different resolution when I use the gareland theme with the resolution 1024x768, I want to optimize the shop for that resolution, the theme will be distorted the pictures of my products stay large. With the bluemarine theme it seems to be better managed the sidebars become smaller.

Your original theme choice is setup as fluid width. The center will change size depending on your browser. The two side columns stay at 200 px. Have looked at this one at 1024 wide to 1920 and it performs very well.

There are other themes that offer either a fixed or a fluid choice. Generally fluid is done for the center column. Thus text in the header at that location will be an issue if distortion is not desired. Or the design will have to take that into account.

Drupal, as you have noticed, has a lot of theme choices.

Have fun with the design.

@Alaska
How is it possible to display the product as on your frontpage.
My products are fixes in raster and when i minimize the windows the raster will displayed over the center in the
sidebars. I can't find any solution for that problem.!?!

Using uc_catalog. Make sure that it is enabled in your modules. This is the path for those settings.

admin/store/settings/catalog

and for more information:
