you know have a style generator, you can literally make 1 dozen new and unique stiles in 30 mins.

I would argue that point. I wouldn't say new styles. Sure you can make 100 new color schemes in a hour, but I wouldn't really call it restyling the page.

Yeah I have my complaints about vB4 styling vs vB3. For the most part vB3 was so simple to customize a caveman could do it. That?s my main gripe about vB4. However, vB4?s way of doing things allow for SOOO much more power over little individual items. What has me most miffed are what I perceive as being bugs with certain stylevars depending on the browser you use. One I am struggling with at the moment is I believe the threadbit_background stylevar. If I set the background image properly in the image line then everything displays fine in FireFox for example. In forums there are backgrounds behind the individual thread entries as they should be. I go check it in IE and they are there. I found a fix for this. Put the url(/images/whateverimage.png) line in the color bar and vwallah now the backgrounds show properly in IE. But wait!!! Now they are broke in FireFox and Chrome ? /facepalm. I haven?t figured out how to fix this one yet.

Another thing I am having issues with, and this I think is more browser related, is that the shadow variables don?t do anything for IE. They work properly in FF and Chr but not IE.
