can someone knowledgeable help me with this?
 

Hi,

I would like to know if someone knows the vBulletin templates good enough to tell me if that can be done: I would like to modify the bg color of a text quoted without modifying the first and second alternating colors. I also would like to add borders to the quoted area. I wish I could do it myself but I have no idea how to make it. I have attached some gifs that should explain better than my words what I would like to achieve.

1: like it is right now
2: bg color changed
3: only the borders changed

I will try a mix between 2 and 3 to see what looks best.

Thank you very much if you can help me with that.

Regards,

ooops... in my enthusiasm I think I have posted it in the wrong forum.

hiya,

that would be the template bbcode_quote, in which the layout of the quote box is defined

you could for example exchange the border setting:
with a new one like this:
with xxxxxx being the color of your choice to achieve a 1px wide border in your color around the quote box


for the backgroundcolor you would cut out the
and put something like
with xxxxxx being the color of your choice
AFTER the border part that we just inserted, so that your tag would look like this:

I have one more question about this template: How could I change the font color? I guess it must be pretty easy but I have no knowledge in html/css.. Thanx a lot if someone can help me.

search for put
with xxxxxx being the color of your choice in front of it and
after it
