Below is a printscreen of a forum (left) with small gaps and my own (right) which has massive gaps:

How do I edit the size between my forums? Not so much like the example, but at least smaller than they are?

Thanks!

Is there space between the forums on the right side also - where the last post and counters are? Take a look at the table that contains the forums and see what the cellspacing and cellpadding is set at and set it to 0 (or whatever).

Yeah, the space is on the right, too. You might have to tell me where I will find that as I'm bit of a "noob" when it comes to vB :)

Try starting with the template "FORUMHOME" (perhaps "FORUMDISPLAY" also), you will see:

<!-- main -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
You can see that the cellpadding and cellspacing are defined by stylevars there. The first thing I would try is go to your style and the drop-down to StyleVars. There you will see the corresponding stylevars for the cellspacing and cellpadding:
Inner Border Width
Table Cell Padding (pixels)

Change it there first and see if you like the look on the the whole forum.
