I hope i didn't disturbed you as if you can help me out lil bit ....

Thanks

This is a fantastic article and will help me immensely.

Header height - Edit vbulletin-chrome.css and find:

Change min-height:35px; to the value you want OR add in a height:50px; but imo I would use min-height ;).

Header to the middle - You can find that info here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...enter-the-Logo

Space above the header - You can add in a new DIV or simply increase the height I would think should not be too hard once you start tinkering ;).

Thanks and glad it's useful :cool:.

Thanks TheLastSuperman..... it helped me a lot in understanding how to resize the header ....

As usual, great tut TLSman ;)

I'm a complete CSS novice so this is great for me (am working my way through the w3 page on CSS). However, I've looked everywhere I can think of, and as I'm still a novice I dont want to tinker too much just yet, but I can't for the life of me find where to change the default Times New Roman text for the "The Front Page" as the home page title. Really want to turn it into a sans-serif font.

Great :cool:.

TY TY :D.

That default text/font style is in the stylevars if I remember correctly ;). Also did you know? you can create a "Child Style" of your main style used and tinker your heart out? Yes and without interrupting or causing display issues for your members using the "Parent Style".

At the cost of making just another "wow, this is great", post- I want you to know how much this thread is helping me make the journey from years of vb 3.7 bigotry to the world of VB4 :)

I've applied a lot of hacks and skin/template customizations in my 3.7 that it was always going to be a royal pain to get converted. The stylevar redo alone was very difficult for me as the vb is really inadequate on explaining this. Having to use the search process for every last style variable is a stone age approach, and you need a good understanding of CSS so you can determine the correct inheritance. The video is a good one, but it assumes you understand the context, and many do not.

The tools you listed here really, really help. So - Thank you. I hope you have a beverage of choice on me :)

I'm sorry if my opinion on vb stock documentation concerning stylevars offends developers, but it is a sorry piece of work in that respect. Any time we only document 40% of something, it's better off left undone. And being an IT Architect (mainframe thru PC's) for 33+ years and writing white papers for a living, I figure I've got a slight insight on the matter. Maybe it's just too many years of having every last bit (and i do mean a bit as in 8 to a byte) defined in IBM manuals and being able base programming and process off such a foundation has spoiled me.

At any rate, Superman, you did me a good service here.

Thank you so much for the sincere and kind words, I truly do appreciate your sentiment ;) and I know things will become better on the documentation, it has recently so I look forward to it improving however we can't compare apples to oranges nor should we imo :cool:. As for the drink.. I'm not much of a drinker, it's just how things turned out after overdoing it very badly one night, many years ago in a galaxy far, far away :D.
