major Help!

Um im a noob at vb and i wanted to kno how to make the forums look ANYthing liek this one with not just d/l a style (i want ta do it my self)

first of all how do you get the boards to be all nice and narrow.. and then have a bg image behind it..

then how to you make postbit like this one..

then um... how do you make the forums catagorys have a nice top (image) all nice an beveled sorta ...

anyhelp would do at all.

Basically all of those are modifications you can find at this forum


Btw, the narrowness is the "Content Table Width" when you edit your style

o ok cool so do you kn othe width of this one?

well.. i'm guessing its either about 70% or 80%

hmm ok ill try with mine.

EDIT: thanx it looks more like 80% thanx now all need ta do is figure how ta make everything else i asked about.

most of this is fairly complicated if you try and do it your self... just have a lok through the Template Mods and Postbits and find one you like and see how they work and how to make your own, then make it and share it here easy as that (well ok not very easy)

**** i wish it was that ez.. im am working on the vB defaule template and i cant even figure out how to take away the white borders on the forums main page.. o well i think i need to learn the header thing first

Lol
on the default, the white thing that goes across the top, is an image
menu_background.gif

so where would i take that out.. in the header template?

yup
