Topic: A new corporate forum

We just set this up today: http://www.mesatactical.com/forum/

Nothing fancy, but we like how it is visually integrated with the main site (which is based on TextPattern).

Re: A new corporate forum

Doesn't seem all that bad, but the black background doesn't really suit the site layout.

Re: A new corporate forum

You should make the width of the board smaller, then it will look good with the main site smile

Re: A new corporate forum

i agree with PhaxeNor..

To change the width and center the forum

Item 5.1 in .css change this

#punwrap {margin: 12px 20px}

to this

#punwrap {width: 760px; margin: 12px auto}

My stuff or my style might sux, but atleast I'm willing to help when I can.
Don't be stupid and help ! We are the stupid one's !!!

Re: A new corporate forum

I guess that's good advice, to make the forum fit the rest of the site better.  But one of the things I don't like about the site design is its fixed width.

Anyway, I made the change Quaker suggested but also found I had to change the positioning of the H1 header from absolute to relative.  Everything seems to work.

CSS is a little scary.

Edit: Anyone have any advice about how to remove the light-colored outline from around the header graphic?  I can't find a line to edit in CSS.  I suppose I'll have to add a new line?

Re: A new corporate forum

Looks very nice now. Makes me feel that i'm still on the same site smile

And yea CSS is a little scary, but thats why we have forums like punbb,  punres and punlancer wink So you can ask smile
I don't much about the CSS part so can't really help you there. Quaker is the one that does that job tongue

I may be incorrect, but try setting:

border: 0;

in the css for the image block.
