Hi, How would I achieve a right hand column on the forum pages. I would like the Forum in main left hand column 80% width and empty column on right 20% width. I do not want to use frames. Any suggestions? |

There is a "Site Integration MOD" that would probably be the best bet. You can find it here by searching the forums or by looking over at http://www.snitzbitz.com |

I don't think it will work correctly with percentages (without additional tweaks) since the forum table is already set at I believe 95%. You could try it though and see what happens. The integration mod is very easy to install.
You can however set a specific pixel width and it will work nicely, the forum will adjust to the space available. I have the integration mod installed on the forum in my sig. The left "panel" is set at 170 px by using a table in the include file. |
Switch the order of your title tags |

Unless I'm going senile (always a possibility) you would need to tweak it a little to get it (the MOD that is) to work with percentages... but it wouldn't be that hard.
First the MOD has to be installed though.  |

Depending on your code experience, you don't need the MOD. Check out my forums - I have ad's on the right, not a percentage, but simple to add. |

The photo album mod is very east to install.
You just uplload the files, make 2 changes, one to default.asp, and the to admin_home.asp. And last of all you gptp the admin pages and install the DB tables and off you go..... Well it should be that is.
This should be something like a 5-10 min install.
You can get the files from www.Snitzbitz.com

I think it was pretty painless. The one thing I got sick of is the member list NOT being in alpha order, apart from that I think it was installed and working in about 5-10 minutes. |

I found that the alphabetical issue was a drag too. It took me over a year to figure out to hit the first letter of the username on the key board. AND another year to figure out if you keep hitting the same letter of the username you'll find the user a lot faster than scrolling down the list. :)

What day is it anyway? |

Thanks for your advice. Can anyone tell me where the default photo upload folder is please. I get an error when uploading, and need to check permissions on the folder that will contain photos. |

Goto the admin photo section and it tells you there it's trying to save the photo's to.

Sorry, I can't figure out where the photos end up. Do they all end up in the 'Forum' folder? |

Thanks, I didn't realise there was an Photo Admin in Admin section.
If I have a folder in my 'forum' folder called 'uploads' then what would my path be? |
