    Hi everyone. I have been trying to modify a theme that I got a few days ago, but I have a couple of small (well, maybe not too small) problems. I’m pretty sure that it can all be solved by modifying the CSS, I just don’t know how.

    Ok, so let’s break down my problems…

    1. Photo problem. This one is cross browser…it works in FF but not in IE. When I post a photo on my blog ( http://www.teeniesexkittens.com ) it’s supposed to have a pink border around it. In FF it works fine…in IE it just comes out blue.

    2. Bullet problem. This one is also cross browser, but opposite. Works in IE, not in FF. My links are a bulleted list. In IE it lines up right, but in FF the bullets are outside the “box” that the links are in. Also, I would like the bullets to be pink and the text black…is that possible?

    3. Bullet problem. I would like to just change the bullets to image bullets anyway, but I have no clue how to do that. I found a small tutorial, tried it, and it changed the bullets to the images, but it also moved the links over to about middle of the box. Also it didn’t work in IE.

    Here’s a link to my stylesheet: http://www.teeniesexkittens.com/wp-content/themes/xlcrazypink/style.css

    If anyone can please help me fix any of this, you will have my undying gratitude. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

    Teenie: Your biggest issue overall is that the code is a mess. I don’t say that as a smart aleck criticism, but it’s really hard to help solve issues when the validator gives 472 errors. Urg. That said, I’ll give it a go:

    — I don’t know if this will help, but try specifying border=”0″ on your img tags. In IE it looks like it’s just using the default blue link color instead of the CSS, since you haven’t delcared the color for a link for the whole page (only specific sections). In lieu of having to remember the border attribute on every img tag, you could set the img link color in the CSS and that would probably fix it as well.

    — As for the side list – you don’t have an opening <ul> tag anywhere in there that I can see, so you’ve just specified list items without declaring a list. I don’t know if that will fix the display, but it’s a start. That will probably help with using the image as bullet problem as well.

    As it stands, that’s probably about all the help I can offer.

    472 errors, sounds like some of that porn revenue ought to be invested into paying someone to fix it. ah well no-one looking for teen porn really cares what the site looks like anyway, do they?

    472 errors!?!? I didn’t make the template, I got it off another webmaster that was giving them away for free…ummmm, I think I see why it was free now. lol. Not saying I could do better, because if I tried to write one it would probably have 4000 errors.

    Ok guys, thanks for the help so far. If anyone else wants to take a crack at it, please feel free to as I really want to use this theme. But if it’s that screwed up, and no one can help me fix it, then I’ll probably have to go with something different.

    Oh yeah, whoami…all what porn revenue? Porn may be a big industry as a whole, but on an individual basis, the money sucks.

    Ok, I still can’t get anything to work. Anyone have any ideas, or better yet…would anyone be nice enough to fix it for me?

    Ok, let’s go a different route…would someone help me if I paid them? If so, let me know how much. Thanks!

    Teenie: Get in touch with me – you can find a contact form on my blog. If you’re that committed to sticking with that theme, I’ll take a look to see what kind of work it would be to clean it up.
