Miscellaneous Hacks - Better Postbit Template

What does this do? Well it will fix that annoying lopsided postbit right template area and make it nice and neat!

First:
You will need to add a CSS variable in the additional CSS Definitons area in Styles - All Style Options - Scroll Down

Add this definition:

PHP Code:

.postbittop {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
color: #000000;
padding:7px 7px 7px 7px;
border: 1px dotted #E0E0E0;
width: 292px;
} 


Note these settings can be changed and adjusted to suit your needs

Next:
Find

PHP Code:

<td width="100%">&nbsp;</td>
            <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> 


Directly Underneath Add

PHP Code:

<div class="smallfont">
                <div class="postbittop" align="right"> 


The align="right" will align your text inside the box. So change this accordingly.

Boosted Panda,
You mentioned on another post that you were successful at placing the dynamic tabs within the postbit template.

How were you able to do that? I have the tabs showing, but anytime I click on a tab it will go back up to the top of the page.

And what's the better approach if I want to fill the entire postbit with a different color (I don't want to use alternate colors by the way)?

Thank you in advance.

Make the .alt1 and.alt2 the same.
