Its a common request, particularly for the 'brochure' or relatively static pages of a website...
I'd like to vary the fonts or background colours on a particular page.
Of course, in Joomla a page means a menu item and the 'pages' in question are generally single article pages so I'll consider this as an enhancement to the available Joomla 1.5 behaviour with respect to the Article Layout menu item.

There are common issues with people trying to get Joomla to display nice distinctive pages or banners for particular pages.
This is actually easy to achieve but its not immediately evident that a picture is just another article from this perspective. The most common template position to display your images on a template will be the 'banner' but this aspect does depend on the particular template you are using so you will have to experiment.
This article describes my experience customising the very nice looking rockettheme metamorph template for my site. I'm not aiming to repeat the information in the tutorials that come with it but rather to detail the things I've had to do to get it to work how I want it to.
Read this as an adjunct to the existing tutorials if you get into difficulty.
