How to disable registration for MediaWiki?
If you want to disable the option for your MediaWiki visitors to register accounts at your MediaWiki website you will have to add the following line in the LocalSettings.php file:
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
You can find below detailed instructions on how to do this on your web hosting account using cPanel:
1. Go to your cPanel. .
2. Click on the File Manager icon
3. Click on the folder icon next public_html folder name
4. Click on the folder icon next to the folder in which your MediaWiki is installed
5. Click on the LocalSettings.php file
6. In the upper right corner you will see several management options for LocalSettings.php file. Click on Edit File
7. Look for a line that starts with $wgGroupPermissions. If there is no such line you should add it yourself and if there already is such a line you should edit it to look this way
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
8. Save the edited LocalSettings.php file and the new users account creation will be disabled.

Menus:
Text that appears above the main menu is not controlled by the menu manager but rather by the module manager. The text is the title of the module. So simply change the title of the module to what yo would like displayed above the main menu.
JA_Purity template header graphic:
The JA_Purity template uses the function getRandomImage() in /templates/ja_purity/index.php to display a random image from the folder templates/ja_purity/images/header. The function getRandmoImage() is defined in /templates/ja_purity/ja_templatetools.php. It looks for images of type .gif, .jpg or .png in templates/ja_purity/images/header/. Any other files in that directory are ignored. The mask, templates/ja_purity/images/header-mask.png, and the CSS code need all the images in the templates/ja_purity/images/header to be 600x80 pixels.
There is a "PHP Cross Reference of Joomla 1.5.6 Documentation" at apostilas.fok.com.br/docs/joomla-1.5. This is vary handy.

Joomla: Change Image Width
Ja Purity was not a template club template so I am not 100% sure of this, but if you are using the 1.013 version I would try the directory templates/japurity/ja_vars.php
and find the following code
# BEGIN: TEMPLATE CONFIGURATIONS ##########
####################################
#support extra color themes
$ja_color_themes = array('default','green','blue'); // You can add more color array if needed
$ja_header_images_wide = array ('header1.jpg','header2.jpg','header3.jpg','header 4.jpg','header5.jpg');
$ja_header_images_narrow = array ('header1-n.jpg','header2-n.jpg','header3-n.jpg','header4-n.jpg','header5-n.jpg');
####################################
# Change the width of the template
$ja_width_default = 'wide'; // 'narrow': 800x600; 'wide': 1024x768
# default color
$ja_color_default = 'green'; //blank for default, else pick one of in extra color themes $ja_color_themes

The Solution
Plan A:
First I tried changing my gif image to a png. This made it show up in IE fine, but my png in Firefox and Safari displayed with a funny outline that I couldn't explain or get rid of.
Plan B:
I went back to using my gif image and simply edited ja_purity/index.php as follows:
1. Removed the call to fixPNG for the logo tag by removing the line
Code:
fixIEPNG($E('h1.logo a'));
2. Removed the logo tag from the IE CSS modifier that moved the background image off the screen. To do this, I changed:
