I need to somehow lower the widths for some of these columns, because the title one is too narrow >.<

It's in the CSS. Use firebug to find them. Just make sure if you increase the one for the title, that you decrease another one or it will go wonky.

I totally don't get those css, there's just too many codes. When I change something, nothing happens >.>

Why don't you post a link to the forum and tell us what you want and then we can suggest some changes (which column larger, which column smaller type info).

It happens only when using New Posts/What's New. On the picture you can see that if it's something long, and there are additionally those icons, like for tags, deleted posts, attachments, it increases the general height of the rows (see cherry thread and general discussion). It's mostly visible in the Replies/Views column and Forum, when the width is fixed to 1000px.

You didn't say what you wanted changed. You want the title box longer and which one smaller?
Also, when I clicked What's New, none of the titles were too long.

When there's couple icons: http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/2518/7643c22e599b45dc961a8ad.png the row is being stretched vertically, creating more space below: http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/7935/22251a825ef243b4b7ae4fd.png so I need the title column wider http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/4814/845371a2e41849798b9108d.png and for that I'd need to somehow reduce the width of these columns: http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/6907/69775ad56bad47e1abd6397.png
And hmm, come to think of it, I might see it, while you don't, because of that moderation box on the very right. If that was the case and members don't see the stretching, I could live it, but yeah, it's still sometimes annoying.

Try opening your site in another browser and don't login and see if you still see the same problem.

Nope, it still happens when I tried visiting as a guest in IE, so it's not the moderation box thingie.

That's the forum column on the far right doing that. It doesn't appear on any other page and to be honest, it's redundant and useless. I'll poke around the css and templates tonight and if I find a way I'll leave a post here or at your forum.

Ok having fired up firebug and poking around for several hours I couldn't do anything to the widths but I did find where the div class and css templates are.
div class is threadpostedin td alt
Template where that is > search_threadbit
CSS > search.css
I could make the text vanish but no matter what I did the width stayed the same.
Maybe Lynne or someone else can take this info and run with it.

I guess you could reduce the width of the last column:
.threadbit .threadpostedin {max-width: 15%;}
(was 19.9%)
And the replies column:
.threadbit .threadstats {max-width: 10%}
(was 15%)
and then increase the threadinfo area:
.threadbit .threadinfo {width: 54%}
(was 45%)
You can see if those numbers work for you. You may need to make them specific to the search results page by adding something like div.searchresults in front of each of those.

Rawr, worked nicely. But I didn't get the part about div.searchresults. You add them in front of those .threadbits in search.css? It won't influence anything else that way? And does it influence something if it's not added?

You would add the in front of the CSS you added to the additonal.css template that I wrote. but, only if you need it and I have no idea if it is needed on your site.
