jaydee_z (or anyone else),

How did you include you're website buttons in the forum? I just got my snitz forum running so I'm a real newbie. I wasn't sure what you did. I'm thinking you possibly altered an ASP file from the forum, included the forum in your own html, did something in the administration options? Not sure though. I'd like to do the same thing you did by having website buttons already in the forum.

thanks,
Perry

Yea I altered the Inc_Header File. The Lines are somewhere around 189 or something. If not look for something that say like "<a href="sitenews.asp">HOME</a>"

Way too busy, and the light on light bg/text make it tough to read.

If you are going to use white font I recomend darkening the bg, but if you like the grey bg, darken the text. I agree that the header font should be sized down a bit, and that the header gradient is a little off. I like the blue link color, but suggest black text for the forum, I think it'll go well with the blue and be much easier to read.

Other than that simplifying things makes the site much more appealing to a user. Having all that stuff thrown at you in my opinion pushes users away. Think about which site you prefer using, Yahoo or Google. Personally I use google 90% of the time except for when i need a map or directions or something specific. The reason being there's too much stuff on the Yahoo page.

And finally quit bumping up the topic until you've made some significant changes!

Well, I got to say, i liked the way it looked myself better the last time around :p

What does it look like if you swap the table gradient from your sections like Quote, Online Members, with the one from your horizontal scroller table?

Also, where you have replaced the text links on your menu with the buttons, you have left the text decoration on some, and not the others, my advice would be remove the text decoration entirely, it might make the image buttons look more part of the top table if you see what I mean.

I also see a button maker online, this makes buttons slightly more metallic looking than you have, check out http://www.buttongenerator.org, maybe they might look better with your theme, (and a useful link for your toolbox as well if you don't have it).

And, where you have 'most popular links', the table is still using the old colours you had before I think.

HTH, Looking good :)

jaydee_z, are you sure the file you altered wasn't the default file? I looked through the inc_header file and couldn't find any link similar to what you posted. I even did a search for it using some of the words.

p_rry i'm sure. Here is an example of what the code might look like

Response.Write " </td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"</table>" & vbNewLine & _
" </td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td bgColor=""" & strForumCellColor & """>" & vbNewLine & _
"<table align=""center"" border=""0"" cellPadding=""4"" cellSpacing=""0"" width=""80%"">" & vbNewLine & _
" <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td>" & vbNewLine & _
" <font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """>" & vbNewLine & _

" </td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"</table>" & vbNewLine & _
" </td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & StrForumCellColor & """ align=""left"" width=""100%"" nowrap>" & vbNewLine


i replaced all of that with a include..

and the include looks like this

<%

Response.Write "  " & vbNewline & _

end if

If mlev = 3 then
Response.Write "  " & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""pop_flashgames.asp"" target=""_self""><img src=""./icon_nav_games.gif"" border=""0""></a> | " & vbNewLine
end if

Response.Write "  " & vbNewline & _
" <a href=""pop_flashgames.asp"" target=""_self""><img src=""./icon_nav_games.gif"" border=""0""></a>" & vbNewLine
end if

Response.Write " <a href=""member_stats.asp"" target=""_self""><img src=""./icon_nav_stats.gif"" border=""0""></a>" & vbNewLine & _
" <br>" & vbNewLine & _
" " & getCurrentIcon(strIconBar,"","") & getCurrentIcon(strIconFolderOpenTopic,"","") & " <a href=""active.asp"">Active Topics</a>  |  <a href=""members.asp"">Members</a>  |  <a href=""advertisement.asp"">Advertisements</a>  |  <a href=""bookmark.asp"">Bookmarks</a>  |  <a href=""rules.asp"">Forum rules</a> | <a href=""filelibrary.asp"">Free Music</a> | " & vbNewLine

' DEM --> Start of code added to show subscriptions if they exist
if (strSubscription > 0) then
if mlev = 4 and SubCount > 0 then
Response.Write " <a href=""subscription_list.asp?MODE=all""" & dWStatus("See all current subscriptions") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""See all current subscriptions""><img src=""" &StrImageURL & "icon_subscribe.gif"" border=0> All Subscriptions</acronym></a> | " & vbNewline
Response.Write "  " & vbNewline
end if
if MySubCount > 0 then
Response.Write " <a href=""subscription_list.asp""" & dWStatus("See all of your subscriptions") & " tabindex=""-1""><acronym title=""See all of your subscriptions""><img src=""" &StrImageURL & "icon_subscribe.gif"" border=0> My Subscriptions</acronym></a>" & vbNewline
Response.Write "  " & vbNewline
end if
end if
' DEM --> End of Code added to show subscriptions if they exist

Response.Write " </font></td></tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"</table>" & vbNewLine

%>

you can copy this code. And save it as a .ASP . and name it inc_nav_bar . then include that in where i did. And your set
