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!

Oops, did't realise a female dog was included in the censor filter. My apologies.

Nevermind, I figured it out the table part

Now for the user Title Alignment ....

okay, figured it all out guys. just played with a fourum_X.pl file under "Templates".

ummm... glad we could help

Heh

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 ?

you need an align="center" down there... or at least a

Yeah, i know that much I just don't know what file and where i do it Their are many "align=" fields

public_topic_page.pl:

sub topic_bottom {

Is this one of them self-help threads?

all done. thanks. had to add align="center" in two locations .. thanks for making me work for it allen learned alot

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

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

I just diabled "Welcome to our newest memer" in the CP for now (until someone helps me out ).

that would be in public_forum_summary.pl
