well it just centers the background and then repeats it downwards. The picture it uses is this:

Yeah i know.. but cut them borders off, as thats what i want to add.. the background and the main table which will be black is easy to sort. just nto sure how to add custom borders such as the one in the design above.

hmm you could add code to your header and footer which then splits it up into 3 columns and 1 row. First column = left border, 2nd column = content, 3rd column = right border.

Any ideas on how to achieve this. As i certainly dont have a clue lol

What's your forums background colour? is it the same colour as that background image? (black)

ok i'll show you a little tut on how to add borders. But you will hvae to work out how to add images as i'm only showing how to add a set colour.

ok first add to your css this little bit of html
oh and change "width: 820px;" to the width you want your forums to be.

now in the header template find:
add below
now go into the footer template and add </div> at the very end

Many thanks

Hey, I cant get it that border to work. Is is possible I have a spare </div> tag somewhere?

if you already have some template edits done then it's possible it won't work. i done these edits on 3.5.4 so if your running 3.6.4 then i can't say if it works or not.
