So... a few months back, I created a site for the Benitez family clan.
I found a skin, after much searching, that seemed to work. I then made a banner for it, and selected a background pic, and through trial and error, managed to integrate them into the style sheets.
The long and short of it is that some numpty (mentioning no names) who had gained Admin powers afew months before decided to replace the skin with something rather awful. He didn't make a copy of the old skin.
So, I'm trying my best (with the limited skills I have) to reconstruct the forum as it was.
So far, I've managed to add the background pic and banner, and managed to add background title pics with partial success (missing in some places, appearing in some places where they shouldn't be). Id also like to add a simple border to the forum, change the colour of some of the text, and some panel areas. The left-hand section on all posts (containing avatar, poster name, just like this forum) has also enlarged un-necesarily causing afew asthetic problems I cant work out how to fix.
The best I can do with CSS is trial-and-error, which may work when adding an image or two, but is useless for intricate things such as text colours and alignments.
