hey, Where and how do i change the text for Visitor Message and About me etc..

i need to make them smaller in order for them to all fit in on one page, as i don't want the arrows at the end were u can select the tab, looks neater when its all together without the arrows.

so i need to change the text for Visitor message etc and change it to something like Messages etc..

Ive searched though the styles and templates with no luck. maybe someone else could find it

Please help me? thanks

You realize that everyone has a different size browser width and so just because it will then fit all in your browser window doesn't mean it will fit all in someone else's.

I believe the file you want to look at though is vbulletin_tabctrl.css

ive checked and i still have no idea where to change the text from. The closest i have seen is this

<div id="profile_tabs">
$template_hook[profile_left_first]
$blocks[visitor_messaging]
$blocks[aboutme]
$blocks[stats]
$blocks[friends]
$blocks[infractions]
$blocks[contactinfo]
$template_hook[profile_left_last]
</div>

which isnt it because it has different text from the profile page. any ideas

That is not from that css page that I mentioned. Did you look at that file? It says right in there /* selected tabs */ So change the font size there.

I have no idea where to view that file as i don't know where the CSS page is, before i just searched in templates the vbulletin_tabctrl.css and it came up with MEMBERINFO

could you tell me exactly where to go please?
