First timer needs mod help...

[RobFerrari]

I'm new to Vb. I have Vb 3 installed right now and want to mostly duplicate what I've created with another board software color and layout wise. Here are some of the things I would like to do. Please let me know if I should wait for official 3.0 templates to be released or how else I can achieve what I want.

1) White instead of the blue background.

2) Light grey background within table rows instead of blue.

3) Same customized header for every page. This header should have a white background, my custom logo center top, banner ad rotation top left, and custom menu options in addition to the standard options.

Please advise.

Here's my current board that was done with Discusware. I'm looking for same basic look to start with.

You can edit the style colors through the Style Manager, just find where the background color is defined and change the hex code.

As for the header, the code for that is in the header template.

What's the best way to test and play with the common template scripts. I copied the script into Frontpage, but I don't want to replace every "$stylevar[imagesfolder]" with the hard link. Is there a way I can still develop my new template in Frontpage while keeping the variables intact?

Thank you,
