Only an admin could tell us. Did they delete the bg image for the headers?

Ok, this is not really our fault. Well ok it kind of sort of is.

When we designed the skin, we didn't have the server set up, so we designed the skin on our private server and then ported it once the new LTX server was ready. Well, for some reason, our web host company decided to shut us out of our server.

So, while I take care of that, the images are temporarily jacked up. Then I can save them and put them on this server, where they belong.

Sorry guys.

Maybe I can just make a quick fix or something.

If you guys cant stand it, you can switch to the lighter theme, Blue Burst, for right now. Looks like we ported all of those images appropriately.

Ugh, ok I'm making them basic colors instead of our nice gradients. Oh well, it will have to do for now.

You mean Silver Burst lol? That's the theme I've always used. It has blue gradient bars, but I like them.

The default theme, Carbon Black had goofy looking blue bars all over it.

It has been fixed now! Just got the images back and they are much nicer than the plan jane colors.

Personally, I like the Blue Burst theme myself. :) :metal:

I'm kidding... They might have it setup with special themes for the admins (for testing purposes) it's definitely doable, but probably more work than it's worth.

You know, that has bugged forever. I tried to fix it, and I'm not sure if I'm just overlooking it or what, but I just can't seem to isolate the field that will change that link!

If you want, send me the template file (on phpbb I believe that'd be posting_body.tpl) and I'll take a look at it.

That shit wasn't easy to find man. Figured it out though.

- Go to the Styles Manager in the admin cp
- Click the dropdown menu for the style you want to edit, and select "Edit Templates"
- Double click "Editor Templates"
- Double click "editor_smiliebox"

Now look for this string of code

<td class="smallfont" colspan="$vboptions[smcolumns]">[<a href="#" onclick="vB_Editor['$editorid'].open_smilie_window(smiliewindow_x, smiliewindow_y); return false" title="<phrase 1="$vboptions[smtotal]" 2="$totalsmilies">$vbphrase[showing_x_smilies_of_y_total]</phrase>">$vbphrase[more]</a>]</td>Should be the second paragraph down. You need to create a new style to replace the smallfont class. I just added a 2 at the end to make it "smallfont2".

Now go back to the "Style Manager" page.
- Click the dropdown menu for the style you want to edit, and select "Main CSS"
- Go to the very bottom of the page, and add this string of code to the "Additional CSS Definitions" box at the bottom.

.smallfont2 { color: red;}
.smallfont2 A:link {text-decoration: none; color: red;}
.smallfont2 A:visited {text-decoration: none; color: red;}
.smallfont2 A:active {text-decoration: none; color: red;}
.smallfont2 A:hover {text-decoration: underline; color: red;}There you have it, just edit it to whatever colors etc you want it to look like.

Hmm, OK thanks. I'll look into this later tonight. Don't count on seeing it implemented until tomorrow, probably not going to get to actually fixing it.

Alrighty, fixed.

Thanks for helping me with that. I knew there was a way to do it, I just never really dove it into quite like you did.

Thanks again! :claps:
