Here's the concise, value-focused rewrite:

When switching from a Marquee template group to Brine, follow these steps to ensure a smooth transition while maintaining your site's functionality and appearance.

Why Switch to Brine?

• More style options and smoother operation
• Similar features to Marquee (stacked index pages, parallax scrolling, banner images/videos)
• Better platform maintenance and support

Pre-Switch Preparation

1. Document your current fonts and colors from website styles
2. Keep your existing template installed as backup

Template Selection Guide Marquee → Basil Adversary → Polaris Alex → Sonny Eamon → Ethan Ginger → Basil Mint → Basil Shift → Burke

Implementation Steps:

1. Preview new template through Design menu > Template > Install New Template
2. Customize style settings to match your previous design
3. Configure header sections, mobile styles, and advanced features

Banner and Content Adjustments:

1. Duplicate index pages to create separate banner and content sections
2. Remove content from top section for banner display
3. Add page titles as text blocks with heading 1 formatting
4. Edit Intro areas for banner text and additional elements

Page-Specific Considerations:

• Album Pages: Now support page banners
• Blog Pages: Grid layout available (column layout not supported)
• Event Pages: Option to show/hide past events
• Gallery Pages: Include page banner support
• Shop Pages: Advanced features supported

Final Steps:

1. Review all pages for proper formatting
2. Click "Set as Live Template" to publish
3. Test all functionality across different devices

Remember: You can always switch back to your Marquee template if needed, as long as you keep it installed.
