Edit Css manually

[The_Menace]

I want to edit the CSS and how my YaBB site appears manually on my server. What file do I need to edit do that? Thanks a lot.

Go into the admin center and edit the template. From there you can edit the css or html.

Is there a more in-depth tutorial on how to change the forum's appearance in the CSS?  Like for example, on this image...where exactly do I change the ones with arrows on them? Thanks..

I do know the link colors can be changed in teh CSS

the windowbg2 or whatever its called is also in teh CSS as a picture.

I think if you play around with the CSS a little bit you will find that about half, if not more, of what you have arrows on can be changed in the CSS

Yes I know you want a more detailed description of what does what... but this is what I recommend... play with the CSS and figure out what does what.

Think you mean .catbg, which is the only CSS class that specifies a background image by default.

How about all of it (except the new/no new posts images)?

Take a look at these links, especially Andrea's Board Color Helper, which should help you a lot:

Sorry, that seems to be missing at the moment, but A.M.A.'s stuff is all still there!

Not bad. Thanks Peter. I'll play around the template maker this weekend after I get thru all my exams. This is a big step up for me in trying to learn this new forums.
