In reply to: Can’t modify default themeits cuz your name is snobblepopkin duh.
sorry..had to…i think i had the same problem the other day…if ya mess with the header image thiny in the admin options the only way i found ta get rid of it was to go into the images folder for the default theme and delete the header-img.php file.
for the rest of the stuff in the style sheet…most of the things like font color and stuff are actualy missing and alota stuff does modify things, but ya cant see them becuse their under the kubrick back ground images.
hope that helps a bit…and sory bout pokin fun at your name…its a real nice name…tehehehe..oops sorry

In reply to: The Sidebar Postsi have been dealin with the problem like crazy…tryin to set up my site to look good in IE as it does in FF.
in FF i can compress my window to like 3×3 ans still have a side bar…in IE as soon as the page element hits either an image in the side bar or and image in the side bar hits the narrow colum it drops…with the web builder tool bar add on for FF on my browser i can outline the elements and watch it happen as i compare IE to FF.
http://www.bcoffroad.ca is the one im workin on right now…its the defualt theme but modified a smidge.
the only solution ive got so far is conditional comments for IE with all my content moved to undisirable locations so the browser can go to a crappy but common rez without dropin it….looks like crap in IE but im gettin close.
wish there was a quik fix and i im hopin ill find it in a day or soo…lol

In reply to: Mysterious uneccesary horizontal scrollbari just tested this out…it kinda works i think…
#headerimg > h1 > a {
width: 350px;
}put it in your style sheet just under the headerimg stuff thats in all ready.
your header img was shootin off the screen..dont know why though..you wouldnt have been able ta see the image im talkin about its just the element that the image is in thats WAY too long.

In reply to: sidebar text alignmentIts right about here in your style sheet or css file in your theme…
#page {
background-color: white;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 0;
width: 755px;
border: 1px solid #959596;
}its the width of your page..it sticks out just a smidge farther than your side bar by mabye 6-7 pixles or so.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: One theme/template question…i think you can use a bunch of conditional comments in your header…you can have an entire other style sheet in there for IE users to see…nobody will ever know the differenc…im considering it right now becuase my site is so perfect in FF but drivin me nuts in IE…figure I’d just do up a seperate IE css.

In reply to: Help with Kubrick CSS layout.actualy if ya add this too you header.php file for the defualt theme it may help a smidge too…
<!–[if IE ]>
<style type=”text/css”>
* {
margin:0;
padding:0;
border:0;
}
</style>
<![endif]–>add it inbetween the <head> and the </Head> tags
and in your style sheet youll see this WAY down…
/* Begin Sidebar */
#sidebar
{
padding: 0px 0 0px 0;
margin-left: 75%;
width: 20%;
}exept the margin and width wont be in a % they will be in a pixle size…you may need ta bump your side bare over a smidge…the side bar is alighned from the left side of the screen so it will be a high px number.

In reply to: Width in Defaultoh yea…try to remember that explorer actualy add margins and spaceing to what you have allready…so if ya think its close then your probably too close..lol
ive stuck in a line or two of code tellin IE ta not be doin that so my sites a bit gimped in IE but sweet in FF…thats an important tweek i gota get too soon.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Width in Defaultha!…never noticed it yet…ill have ta check it!
to check my site while doin the mods..i had ta move slow then drive down to future shop and check it on their widscreen display laptops…lol
it was a wierd job ta do…ill try to remember the steps for ya if youd like.
part of the problem from what i remember is there are two css files…or locations that their commin from…once you ditch the images that make up that kubrick center piece your left with a new page with work needing done in the stylesheet..had to actualy remove some things from the css till i was left with just one BG image and all the rest of the sites options their.
then i had to add a bunch of stuff to the css to change the font colors and link colors.
then had to slowley but surely change stuff from px to %.
if ya go too wide with the main colum the side bar will drop…same with if ya go too wide with the side bar.
gota watch the margins too..just one mod at a time and then check it.
i gota touch it up a bit but need to get ta work on other things 1st.

In reply to: Width in Defaultadn the side bar right now needs ta be moved over just a wee bit for the widescreens but im busy right now on some other aspects…ill dial it in soon though 😉
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Width in Defaultif your heart is set on doin that with the kubrick it’s actualy not that bad to fix up, but ya gota ditch the BG images…ive ditched all but one and replaced it with a better one.
you can check mine out…thing looks good in all sizes of monitors from normal ta wide screen.
if ya like it…all it is is a few changes in the css, header, sidebar and index page. If ya try ta mess with them though doit in very small increments and constantly check them in IE and FF.
take a peek…
