Thast is one very busy and distracting background that you have there.

I'd also be tempted to tone the red white and blue used down a bit, it is very harsh on the eyes.

Using blue for your background for quotes is not really the best color as it is very difficult to read the text being quoted.

You have a bit of a problem with line breaks in the navbar breadcrumb bits (the bits the show where you are eg
vBulletin.org Forum > Community Forums > Forum Commenting
- Toonville)
and in the forums part of the moderators section on Forum Leaders.

Definately original though. It's not something that I have come across before.

Ok...I know that background isn't doing the job. Where can a person find backgrounds??

I asked about correcting that line break, but never got any help. It's been like that since I centered the Titles in Catergory Strips. Yep it does need a toning down... TY so much. If you know where to get backgrounds I'd sure appreciate the links...

Ah, now I prefer that background :D

How have you centered your categories? It's probably that code that is causing the line breaks.

I think this looks a bit better. www.edtoonsboard.com

Yes I did along time ago. using for example this code in the title for Category <center>Fun and Humor</center> for the Fun and Humor Category.

Thats how VBulletin told me to center a Category. But then when I did that it did as you described and I still have not found a way to correct that.

Thank You.
