[Release] Forum Border

Author: SaintDog

Description: This will teach you how to add a border around your forum such as what we have here (ie: the blue border/outline).

[Dimi]

How about put an index.html in the dir of your forum that is devided into 3 frames, 2 outside frames have your image border aligned so that they stick to your board

much simpler imo

Greetz,

I think you're looking for the [Release] Category Backgrounds template mod [link]

the things mentioned in this topic, arent they the same as what is mentioned here:

http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mo...=&threadid=125

just a matter of uploading a catbackround image to the images/frontpage folder?

im more asking how to modify that table so it looks like above^^ where its blue and kinda looks like a folder almost...

Ok, then I'm confused as to what you're asking. Are you looking for a way to add images to your categories, or to your posts, or both?

soryr to confuse you, im trying to ask, basically if you take this forum thread for instance. if you look at each of the posts, at the very top in blue where it says - Posted: 07-18-2002 at 10:34 PM in blue and on the left and right of that Blue border it looks like three layers ontop of each other. If you go here: http://yaxay.com/yack/ you will see the same outline but in blue, orange, and grey.

that is what i want, i want that "border" to be on my Forum homepage categories and on each individual posts as well

i hope i clarified better, i would take a SS but i dont have access to photoshop at the moment

Ok, now I know what you're looking for!

SaintDog has not released the mod you're looking for. You can find his explanation at this link.

However, what you're looking for is similar in nature to [Release] Category Backgrounds template mod [link] and could be modified to work with your postbit.

What he's done (and I hope I don't get accussed of ripping here ) is to create a table with the following:

1. First cell includes the left image
2. Second cell includes a background image (see link above for the template mod) and the post title
3. Third cell includes the right image
4. He repeats the the similar process for the footer

I can see why SaintDog hasn't relased this just yet. There's a lot of options here in this template mod depending on how your postbit is configured. Plus, you have to have custom images.

I hope that helps!
