I would do that, but i cant figure out how tim changed the backgrounds..so im gonna wait for that when joe finishes the upgrade.

I dunno if it's different for this version of VB or not, but on mine, in the admin control panel you go to the "Styles and Templates" tab, and go to "Style Generator" and from there you can change all the colors.

It's actually very easy but I understand what you're saying, I was terrified of screwing something up the first time I tried it to. What you should do is create a whole new style and keep the one we have now, so that if you screw up on making a new one it won't affect the site at all, it can be a lot of fun messing around with creating new styles :)

My ex is doing it :( The upgrade wont support this template anyways, so Ill probably have to wait until the new template is up to play with it. :(

Yeah, that's a good idea, if you make a new one now it'll just be unusable with the new version of VB, but afterwards you should tinker around in the AdminCP lol

I would take DK's advice and create a new template based off the old one, and play with it. It's the only way you will learn. :D

In your admin panel... you should just have an option for users. Then in that, another for different things doing with users. User title button, click and away you go. Edit.

She knows how to change user titles. :D

It's only cause I ran a forum for years. But forums are made out different, and Veronica's could be a different set out. But even if it is...my talk through is still a rough guide, and it may help a little. Well, I hope it does lol

LOL I know how to do stuff in the admin cp, i just dont like messing with the templates too much. Im worried Ill mess up the coding. But I will start playing with it more when I have it squared away.

Yes mam. I know how to do the user title.. just not background color like we have in other sections of the forum (like vip, etc) :) Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Hahaha, no....it's my fault. I been drinking, and I am obviously not reading properly. I am sure you know how to work your own forum. I know I had trouble sometimes with mine. They are a pain in the arse at times :p

I didn't mean to imply that you didn't, my post came out wrong :( You've done a phenomenal job with OTZ and that's why you've got so many members :)
