I need some styling help
Using the Style Manager in the Admin CP seems pretty straightforward and easy as long as all you want to do is make basic style changes. However I would like to do more than that and have the graphics background and programs to do so but I am weak on coding.
What I want to know is if I make an image for the header in 3 pieces so that there is a repeating background with a left and right image how does that get coded? And does that need to be changed in the header template? Or can it be extra css code? That same question also applies to the Footer, Table Header, and Category Strips. Also on all three areas do you also need to specify the height of the images you are using or will the style adjust upon the height of the image used? Secondly how do I add a space between threads? And once a space is added does each thread then have it's own footer? The reason why I ask these questions is because in order to acheive a shape other than a rectangle I assume that is what people have done. I have several more questions concerning changing other parameters but I will wait until I understand and can use effectively what I have allready asked. Thanks to everyone who is willing to help me out. |

Thank you so what I am looking for is best done in the templates correct?
And I have to be sure and have open and close tags < > . Is there any heirarchy I need to be carefull of, in other words where in the particular template should I add the code? |

Thank you Valdet after I initiqally posted I found that article and then I cracked open my CSS books to see how I could also line up multiple images and set one as expandable so that is covered. I also discovered that you can adjust the navigation bar in the header.
Now what I need to know is what template or area for extra CSS effects the space between the threads on the main forum page. I found this going through the VB help could it really be this easy? Quote:
