The posting area "buttons"
Hi,
When you are setting up your own board you may notice that the place where you write (or edit or post) your messages doesn't fit the rest of your boards design or theme. Fear not, your custom CSS can fix this area for you so it matches the rest of your board  .
When you look in the custom CSS for your board look for a section called "/* WRITE MESSAGE TABLE */" which is in every theme I have seen for RunBoard. NOTE: This applies only to the default themes on RunBoard, but even if you have a skin designed by someone else they still have to use the same CSS classes, you will just have to hunt a little harder...
You should see this class name somewhere in that section: .qcode_bar_but which affects the area outlined in red below...
In this example let us say you find this code:
quote:
.qcode_bar_but {font-color:#ffffb3; font-size:11px; border:1px solid #000000; background-color:#FCD9EF; margin-top:1px; background-image:url(
http://img.runboard.com/img/layouts/smackdown5_9/separator.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x; color:#A6A6A6; padding:2px}
The height of the "button area" here is 16px (font-size:11px + border: 1px (for top and bottom = 2) + margin-top: 1px + padding: 2px) 11+2+1+2=16 so you can either pick a graphic hosted by RunBoard that is 16px high or create your own then just replace the URL (the code between the parantheses that is underlined above) with the new URL for your own "custom background." Now you really should check to see if the "background-color" is close to the color of your graphic image just in case something happens and your image doesn't load then the theme you are striving for won't be totally messed up (if you know what I mean). Oh yes, be sure the "font-color" is one that can be read on your new "buttons."
