You can do it quite simply for Forumdisplay like this:
Find in forumdisplay.php:
Code:
while ($thread=$DB_site->fetch_array($threads)) { // and $counter++<$perpage) {
Right after that, add:
Code:
if($oror++ % 2 == 0)
{
$tread[color] = "{secondaltcolor}";
}
else
{
$tread[color] = "{firstaltcolor}";
}
And thats that. Then just add bgcolor="$tread[color]" to table cells in the template you want. You can also rename the variables "$oror" and $tread[color] to whatever you want.
And, if you're clever, you can also add the same thingy to what ever loop that lists threads, topics, posts etc.
