Props to teamwork gang!

Yeah that was great...no offense to anyone but the final instructions made sense when I looked at them. Dunno what all the rigomorale was about in the header I have (custom, I'm sure something will crash later hahaha) but the changing everything to one function made sense to me. Learning as I go!

A lot of us learn that way too.

It's amazing how that cleaned up the look of my page...now if I could stretch it....arg...heheheh I guess that's just a matter of the graphic dimensions?

[Freesteyelz]

Yes but you can always stretch the image. If your using the <img> tag then set the width in the tag. Something like:

<img src="image_URL_here.gif/jpg" width="700px" class="img" />

Then in Main CSS (Additional CSS Definitions):

img {
  border:0;
  }

It will distort your image, however, if it's stretched forcefully.

Ok but how does that work with what you told me above?

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
	<td style="text-align:center"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

I replace

<img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" />

with what you said? I don't get that as they appear to be completely different statements. Oh wait..the CSS call covers the border statement..but what about the $stylevar[titleimage] and alt="$vboptions[bbtitle] stuff...?

[Freesteyelz]

It should be:

<img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" width="700px" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" />

Where it says "700px" change to the width you want it stretched to.

The border="0" should not be inside the <img> tag (bad coding) but that's for another time (shame on vB). Heh.

Ahh...again that makes sense..

[Edit] Ok that works but goofs the graphic..so's I guess I redo it. Oddly it also Widened it? PS...if you are online Free...any chance of live chat? I have a TS we can use. Err..[Edit] How do I just use the graphic as is..ie it's dimensions? [Edit again] Nevermind...using the width setting along with the newly made graphic worked fine...thanks! [Re edit] Ok...hehe another one...the whole page scales with the browser...except the graphic...yikes! [Double trouble edit] Ok...replacing width with $stylevar[outertablewidth] allows the graphic to scale with the browser but the initial graphic doesn't fit the window...? Learning as I go. Making a new image (larger) didn't work as far as sizing? Hmmm. Hope others are reading this and learning too!

Hehe. Self-service is fantastic.
