Need help Please!

[Straw]

  This is my new BB @ http://www.net-jam.net/yabbse/index.php

{Problem}
As you can see the borders that seperate the catagories, forums, stats etc.. are missing. Everything else on the BB is exactly the way I wanted it. Can someone please show me how to put the borders back?

Try restoring all the YaBB SE selectors to your style sheet and editing the declarations to suit your design!

Even though I somehow managed to get my boards working I'm not fluent in web design. As I learn about Yabbse I discovered  that I'm not exactly sure how to restore all the selectors or edit declarations.

OK, let's explain that in a bit more detail:

Style sheets are basically composed from selectors (such as .windowbg and .bordercolor) and declarations (such as font-size: 12px; and background-color: #6394bd;). The selectors specify what you're going to apply the styles to and the declarations specify what you're going to do to these things. Something you've done to one or the other has affected your borders. If I quote you the default YaBB SE style sheet (from template.php) here, perhaps you'll be able to compare it to yours and work it out, but please don't hesitate to come back to us if you need any more help.
