******SOLVED******

Hey guys firstly i would like to apologize for having to ask in here.

I purchased a template from VBinCOMPLETE it come with many bugs and missing coding :) and to top it off they cant answer my in their forums or on MSN messenger (MATT.PRICE signs in 10 times a day but cant help out his paying clients) really wishing i had just used the nulled version of the template, but i did the right thing and paid for it (can show receipt if need be).... AHHH anyway..

I have what would seem to be a very easy mod, but i am struggling to find out how and where to edit.. I wish to edit the height of my templates navbar:

I know this should be a simple process but i am struggling to find out where and what to edit.

A huge thanks in advance to anyone who is able to help me with this.

Kind Regards :up:

From the looks of his support site (and your comment) he's got a lot bigger problem than you do. What style are you running. You screenshot doesn't look like any of the ones on his site?

Should be this in the Main CSS (its in the bottom block of custom setting at the bottom):

.navigation {
background: url(images/crystalclean/misc/navbarbg.gif) repeat-x;
height: 43px;
}

You will have to change the background image to match the height of your new setting.

LMAO ... yeah i wonder if there is own little bots running around in there.. having him on MSN and not even saying hello to me was the reason behind my nice comments on his site..:D

Im using CrystalClear i have just changed some images to suit my site more.

thanks for trying to help.

edit: ive somewhat , modded it to look ok, but still the writing is out out of whack.. i just created a new navbarbg image to blend in with the color under the navbar.. it will pass for now i guess.

The coding in his templates is a good damm mess, i will be the first to admit i am an amateur but some of his code is sloppy @ $40 a template .. firstly some support would be nice and secondly if he is going to encode some of the files the least you can do is offer a little help instead of just ignoring his PAYING clients.. thats no way to run a business

In case you didn't see my edit, the change you need is in the bottom box of Main CSS

.navigation
