It of course needs a strong web presence. At this point a Web-savvy designer has been hired that produced a design as a vector drawing. An HTML/CSS specialist has decomposed that design into HTML, images, and CSS.Your job in this lab will be to take these component parts and use them to recreate the design in SharePoint 2010. Estimated time to complete this lab: 60 minutes.MaterialsThis Hands-On Lab contains resources in the following folder. Lab Resources : c:\mslabs\SharePoint2010\WCM\05_Branding\Resources Exercise 1: Creating the Site and Site CollectionIn this exercise, you will be creating the SharePoint site that will have the Blue Yonder branding elements applied to it. This lab is designed for a new SharePoint site using a publishing portal template. If you have been following these labs you will need to remove the site installed at http:// demo2010a:8080/. Follow the instructions in Task 1 to learn how to remove it. Task 2 reminds you about the details needed to create a new site. When you are ready, Task 3 deals with creating sub sites.If you do not wish to remove the site then some of the screenshots in this lab may not match your site.Task 1 – Remove Web SiteOpen the SharePoint 2010 Central Administration web site by going to Start | All Programs | Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Product | SharePoint 2010 Central Administration.Note: Select Yes if a User Account Control (UAC) dialog appears asking if you would like to give this program permissions.Once the SharePoint 2010 Central Administration page is open, click on the Manage web applications hyperlink under the Application Management section.

See REF _Ref281893389 \h Figure 5.Figure SEQ Figure \* ARABIC 5SharePoint default navigationNote: The SharePoint Global Navigation (which is shown in REF _Ref281893389 \h Figure 5) uses sub-sites as the main navigation (menu) source.
