Will see when he gets back and has disabled plugins via config to see if that is the problem or if that file is missing as i have seen many styles that use some default folders as well

Yeah quite a few styles do. :)

My forum developer did it through the styles and templates I believe, he changed the color that way. How do you do this?

Did you disable the plugins?
Did you verify the sprite.png is present?

What version of php are you running?
What version of vBulletin are you using?

As I said again, lol.. It is not from the plugin. How do you change the color.... Edit vars? Styles & templates? What..

That is going to depend on the style, some developers use the stylvar system, some use custom css, some do it old school and change it directly in the templates.

This is why you need to ask in the thread where you got the style from.

In a default style, the colors are changed via the stylevars and sometimes via the CSS Templates if a stylevar is not available to change the item they want to change.

I understand that, however, I am only asking how is it done the oldschool way? What do I look for in stylevars or it is located in?

I already answered that as best as possible.
However, if you are missing the little buttons in the editor, your problem is not stylevars, your problem is you are either missing the sprite file or you are missing the CSS that defines the position in the sprite file.

I just cannot find the exact file in style vars I am looking for. I testing all the thread and posting, none of them changed it. What is this called? The buttons are there!! It's just too bright to show up. My previous HA changed it because it was too dark and now it is too light, that's all!

My problem is I don't know what it is I am searching for, what this area is called. I am looking in here:

I just don't know what exactly it would be called. Which one of these files would change it.
