Skarletmoon I was wondering if someone had a code for making my board thin. Like it is shown here. http://s2.excoboard.com/exco/index.php?boardid=14342 I know ady makes skins but i don't really want a skin just the ability to thin out the board exposing more of a background around everything. I have started making some sets. Buttons and headers and stuff that all matches so I can post them up here for people to use who aren't too good at designing their own stuff. Not really a skin just cool graphics to change with the others given, ya-know. I just would love to be able to see more of the background patterns.

mahud you can change the forum width by going into 'settings' > 'Style' > Table Properties > 'Tablewidth' and set the forum width either by % or Pixels. If you want to fix the width using pixels just leave out the %.

A width of 700 would be a good place to start perhaps

If you have enabled custom templates you'll need to do the forum width directly in the templates. Look for all the Tables that begin

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="95%">

and change the width, as you would in the Table Properties.

I hope that was helpful :)
