Wow 1st post here? I embedded 2 snapshots of the "reVisited" Style. Please notice the red arrows in both attachments.

Vertical Lines
Is that possible to get the vertival devider line (red arrow) kinda coherent? Know what I mean here? Take a look of the 1st attachment "vB Standard Style" and now compare it with the other attachment. Is this possible?

Fonts
In the "reVisited Style" I found a folder called "_fonts". And there is a file called "Exotic 350 Bold BT". Forgive my stupid question, but for what it that file? Do I have to copy this file into a vB folder? OMG stupid me

Whenever you have a lil bit time maybe you can help me? No need to rush. Thanks for all the time to answer my questions. -Mike

The problem is with the forum home display alignment. I remember I saw someone posted a fix for this on vb.org but i couldn't get it to work either. Some style does not have this problem while others do. You need to shorten the thread title length.

Font: Go to your Window Control Panel, and Fonts. Double lick on that and File -> install new font. Browse to that "Exotic 350 Bold BT" file and click install.

This will import the font so when you open Photoshop, the font will be available for you to use to change the text of the psd buttons.

Well, we gotta start learning from somewhere right ? I learn by google, asking question, trying out myself.

I'm a bit smarter than before I had VB, that for sure


-----------------------------
Note: your forum requires me to install some kind of plugin when i use FF. Also, i can't see the style there.

Visit my forum and select the Gray style to see what i did with this style

shorting the thread title is the way it can be done to get rid of the push on the lastpost cell .

admin-cp -> vBulletin Options -> 'Forum Listings Display Options'
the setting is : Last Thread Title Maximum Displayed Characters .

right now we use 25 characters, and will normaly stay within the 200px .
this is slighty wider than vBulletins default , the title lenght slightly shorter .
we need to remember the 800x resoultions people still use .

still every now and again one will go out of line untill another post with a title that is shorter or can be split by vBulletin to bring it back .
one of the things about split forums is this .

another way if you wish the last post wider than the 200px to let/ force them be wider for the shorter titles that wont' be as long - trying to keep them aligned .

changing this should help/ make them stay in line providing the title cut off is with-in this size - except for the every now and again long title is :
- on our styles - change out the '_lastpostspacer.gif' found in the {styl images dir}/misc .

made 4 wider ones - 225, 250, 275 and 300 px wide . they need to be rename them to _lastpostspacer.gif . over wright the one thats in the " {styl images dir}/misc " dir - this will force the cell to be at least that wide .
the number in front of them is the width .

fonts - we supply them as some people may not have them . saves them looking around for the font when editing the images with text .

Gee what a great support. Thanks guys

Aaah now I'm on the way. Yay that makes sense for me.

Yes I have the same strange thing. That's also the reason why I do not use FF. My fav's are either Slimbrowser or Deepnet. Deepnet is more better than FF IMO of course.

Yep I know. Additionally I have an Local Test forum on my PC. My Forum does still use vB 3.60. I have too much work in converting the old Templates into the new 3.64, you know? Time to install Andreas's greatest TMS hack!!!

Yes I see. Do you mean the style with vBadvanced?

Santai My god that's a great info. Thank you very much for such a detailed info. Will do it ASAP. If I get any prob's I hope I can get back to you.

BTW: I see you're from TN? That means Tennessee? I've been in Chattanooga some years ago. We have had a great Acura Meeting over there. A wonderful place.
