Graphic/theme issue
« on: December 18, 2008, 09:21:22 AM »
Ok i need some advice! After two month i nearly have my site as i want it but i have one major nag!. i have changed preactivcally everything from the original theme, but one thing i cant seem to alter are the header bars (i dont know what they are called so took a pic and circles them in red)

I would to have a more soft edged banner and in a lighter color. i have teh image i want to use as i have used it in soem butttons, but so far i have even been unable to change teh color (ive have gone through everything in the style sheet, assuming thats where it is)

If it is a simple job some brief directions would be great, alternatively does anyone know a trustworthy designer who maybe able to help me out with this alteration if it is possible? i'm a bit wary of posting in one of teh big forums for this.

Anyway thx for any responses peeps.

heres what i mean (i still only knwo teh names of some of the things so ill call these teh black bar thingys)

It is only impossible until it has been done!

It would help if you posted your url and what theme you are using. Generally rose is right in his matter, but like the theme I am using for my forum now, the designer changed the names of those files.

Ok so look in the CSS Style sheet of the theme, if it states a call for catbg and the titlebg, then look in those calls and see what the name of the image is, then goto the theme's image folder and you can get them and change them with your image program. Couldn't really tell much as you don't let guests see the forum so I can't see what I am looking for there.
