everything is fine except this one color

You can't read the dark blue on black background at all. I've been through the css and the colors both and can't find it.
the username for admin does not show up in last column.Then i changed the color in the last column in the forums and it's grey but i need to change it back to black and make sure the text color shows up.Again it's that dark blue. Can't find either of these in the css sheet.Am worried about goofing it up more than i already have all over this dark blue color.
Here's the url http://getlevinitized.forumotion.com/
Once that one color is fixed it's ready to go!

here a tip which will help when looking for a id to do with css is to right click expect element

i think this is what your looking for

Code:: td.row3Right, td.spaceRow { background-color: #B5AAAA; border: #444; border-style: solid; }

just change the color code to #000

dam how did you end up doing that tbh the white looks better its easier for members to read posts we used to have our forum black with green and the amount of complaints we got i just ended sticking with light colors Smile

at this point believe it was some piddling with Css Sheet. However, things got so messed up i almost deleted the forum. Instead i tried a different theme and customized it. Now though i've got this border line that is driving me crazy and the posts are too large for the width of forum. i want to leave it at the same size but have to figure out how to make the post area smaller-not quite so wide. THEN figure out how to get that daft white (blue?)border line out of there. Frustrated!

i think the blue border line your looking for is

Code:: .forabg {

what i normal do is just take my time and only change one thing at a time make copy's of the css so if you mess up you only got to copy and paste also you can leave notes in the css so you no where your at in the css

Code:: /*use this */

thank you so much!! solved whole problem by changing theme.like it. Part of the problem seemed to be the theme. Am happy w/ the new one.customized a tad and we're ready to go. I really appreciate the words of encouragement. We'll be around for awhile. Love to see your forum. have url? Stop in mine anytime. Smile

you're always welcome!
PS i do know if you want the reply to be white ya gotta go into the CSS and change the reply text area to white and then the font color has to be dark.. Figured that much out.Think it's under input or something. If i saw it would know it. If you still want to change that let me know and i can look it up.Yeah. Love to get the hang of CSS. Never took the time. Sad

Again thank you. see ur from UK. kewl. Have pen pal over there from W Yorkshire. He sends me a calender of Hebden Bridge every year for Christmas. Lovely country.
