im having a few problems
plz look at picture i circled problems in red :)

This works better for most people. No offense:
<table bgcolor="{pagebgcolor}" width="{tablewidth}" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="10"><img width="10" height="4" src="{imagesfolder}/space.gif" alt=""></td>
<td width="100%">
<!-- spacer -->

<!-- spacer -->
</td>
<td width="10"><img width="10" height="4" src="{imagesfolder}/space.gif" alt=""></td>
</tr>
</table>

Place that before and after the postbit. It makes for a nice effect. Taz, if you do this, you will not find any errors.

Bad Bunny no offense but your code doesn't work.

It still does not fill up the screen

im having the same problam anyone resolved it

i dont think its a problem w/ his code ... becuase it worked flawless for me ...

Try this.... It fixed mine... however it doesn't separate the top post from the top bar.

<!--added-->
<table align="center" bgcolor=""#FFFFFF" background="images/mainbg.gif"" width="100%">

<td bgcolor=""#FFFFFF" background="images/mainbg.gif"" height="10" align="center"></td>

</table>

Love it :D
thx alot,

*INSTALLED*

your welcome :D

if anyone still hasn't gotten it to work, try this.
place this in the postbit
where the code is
and then to seperate the top post from the header, go into the showthread template and insert the same code
where the code is
sorry mist, your suggestion wasn't working properly on my site either... and i think it is because i use different colors for the page bg and the forum bg... anyway, tweaked around and this works for me. may work for others too.

great stuff! i use this one right away adn will apply it to every skin i make
