Just so you can get a good idea of how much my forum layout sucks you can check it here:

http://forum.garagelan.com

Here is a list of things I am having a ***** of a time figuring out. Please keep in mind I have very little web design knowledge.

1. I want to align the user name/title/and member# centre with the avatar so it looks cleaner. I also wanted to add the post count right below the Member# just like that sweet lookin' "netwerkin.com" site i just looked at.

2. See where it says "my profile, register, search, faq, forum home" ? I wanna make that into a table with "Welcome ". Basically just like the UBBDev.com layeout. This means I would like to get rid of "show topis from X days" as well.

Those are the major things I really would love help with. Can someone please help me out ? I am pulling out my hair searching this forum for tips and pointersw. I must not be searching right.

Anyways, thanks a bunch in advance!

Heh smile

Just one thing ... I can't find the proper alignment field to edit for "Show topics from last" in the new table header. I think it would look better if it was aligned to the left. Any suggestions ?

Oh, just found alother alignment issue:

http://forum.garagelan.com/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=000925

scroll all the way to the bottom and you will see
"All times are Mountain Standard " and "Printer-friendly view of this topic" are not the 95% width of the screen like the rest of the site. Can someonje point be to the right field to edit ?

Okay, things are looking great for the forum. Let me know what you think smile

http://www.garagelan.com

Also, one thing thats really buggin me .... The compact header mod looks a bit cluttered. Is there any way to change it so the "Registered Member Total" and "Welcome" info can be on the same line instead of two seperate ones ? masicall have "registered Member Total" aligned to the right and "Welcome" info aligned to the left ? I have been looking all over for the variables to change but i can't seem to find em. Too many .pl files smile
