i had a background image as my top bars before, but my friend did it for me and is nowhere to be found. when i changed the font colors for the bars, it changed the bg image to a solid color. how do i get the bg back into the bar?

Do a search in your default.asp for: bgcolor=""" & strHeadCellColor & """ and place this background=""headbg.gif"" inside the <td> with it.
Just make sure to use the name of your image instead of the headbg.gif

You do NOT need to edit default.asp!!

All you need to do is to go in your Font/Colour Configuration, and where it says "Category Background Colour", put in:
" background="catbg.gif"


Now, you need an image to be called catbg.gif, you can get some of those from the GRAPHICS link in my signature.

I guess you have done this and it works. I never tried that because I assumed it would insert a statement something like this:

bgcolor="" background="catbg.gif""
which I didn't think would work.

I haven't tried it but I can't see why that wouldn't work. The only thing I suggest is to put the colour in aswell to cater for old browsers
eg
#3366CC" background="catbg.gif"

Ok, I see it now. If you put the color in and the background statement then they get inputed and it actually looks like two different statements.

Yeah, I have always used this statement. Another way would be to install the MOD, I cant remember the exact name for it, but its something Header Background Image MOD, I don't exactly remember the name.

This does not work. The text you have to put in is to long. Then whenever i get it short enough it just erases it.

You can extend the size of the value field in the FORUM_CONFIG_NEW table to fix this

...in the file admin_config_colors.asp
And if you are on the basic snitz code, it will be around line # 231

<td bgColor=""" & strPopUpTableColor & """><input type=""text"" name=""strHeadCellColor"" size=""10"" maxLength=""50"" value=""" & chkExist(strHeadCellColor) & """>" & vbNewLine & _


I think thats what you ned to edit, and also the category one:

<td bgColor=""" & strPopUpTableColor & """><input type=""text"" name=""strCategoryCellColor"" size=""10"" maxLength=""50"" value=""" & chkExist(strCategoryCellColor) & """>" & vbNewLine & _


[I am not a programmer or anything, but I *think* thats what you need to edit.]
