Hi Guru's,

 

Probably a newb mistake, but I downloaded this template from adobe (attached). I do not seem to be able to change the color of the purple frame border inside the attached .ai file. It's the one with the giant "winners" in the middle. I see it's some sort of gradiant, but I'd like to be able to change the color of it from purple to something else.

 

Nothing I've done seems to work. Can someone tell me what's i'm doing wrong?

Nothing, it's not a vector item, it's an image.

Do not know why it's not a group of just 4 four strokes.

You can use the Pen Tool to click on each stroke making a corner, and give them a color and a stroke weight of 24.5pt

To make straight lines, with vertically and horizontally aligned points hold Shift while clicking.

That purple frame is an image.

It is easy to redraw (instead of fiddling around with adjusting the color balance).

It is not your mistake, the creator should have made it easy to change.

Luckily it is easy to fix.
