Customization

Page and Site Customization Using Web Parts and a Browser

By using built-in Web Part features, administrators can easily customize their home page and Web Part Pages. A Web Part is a modular unit that forms the basic building block of a Web Part Page. Available when you create your SharePoint site, it gives you convenient, organized lists, images, and text. You can create dynamic informational portals by adding, configuring, and connecting Web Parts to Web Part Pages. By using a Web browser, you can change the picture or add a view of a list on your home page.

Customization Using Themes and Templates

Using themes that simplify customization, you can change the appearance of your site. A theme is an integrated set of design elements that provide the color scheme and fonts for your SharePoint site. You can easily change the site's theme to fit your organization or team personality. MailStreet uses the "Arctic" theme for our screenshots.

Templates will help your site maintain a consistent look, and you can use them for libraries, entire sites, or individual lists. Saving lists as templates allows you to reuse them or distribute them to other sites. Your Web Parts, list templates, and site templates can be stored in libraries for use by all sites.

  What is a SharePoint Site?

  With a Windows SharePoint Services site, you get a secured intranet-like website accessible only to your organization or team. SharePoint allows you to share documents and photos, as well as post announcements, tasks, events, and even conduct surveys with your team or organization. SharePoint is fully integrated with Microsoft Office® so you can open documents directly into Microsoft Word® or Excel®, and "save" changes directly back to your SharePoint site—with just one click.

• Securely Share Documents

  Securely Share Documents

  Users can upload documents directly to your SharePoint site from any computer with Internet access. You can upload, download and share any type of file, document, or image. Also, if you are using Microsoft Office documents like Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, you will have "one-click" save functionality, as well as direct access to many SharePoint features directly within the Office environment. You can also be alerted by email if documents are modified or checked out to team members.

• Business Templates

  Business Templates

  Hosted SharePoint Services customers can also customize their SharePoint site by installing one of the various Business Templates developed and published by Microsoft. Many templates are provided for free at Microsoft.com, and address requirements for specific business needs and processes. Examples include various Human Resource and Project Management solutions.
