Its pretty rough looking but when I get a chance I'll clean up the coding a little but it certainly does the trick.

Save & refresh your browser on that skin you have just altered this with & you will have a new look to the forum view.
:woot:

Hope this helps some of you out a little.

Sadly this does not work for the IB-X skin :(

Sorted it for IBX.

Just awaiting confirmation from M3NF & AristiA about posting it .

OK here it is.

Slightly different way of doing this for IBX, so we have tried to make it a little easier for you.

Dowload the file & unzip it, inside you will find a html file, now go into acp then select manage html templates section. goto the forum index section but dont click to edit, click to upload instead, select the file you downloaded (the hmtl one) and when done refresh your board.


Will look like this

This will get updated shortly to change the bottom table to look a little nicer. But there you go, something to even make the bottom of the IBX board look a little different

PLEASE NOTE THIS DOWNLOAD FILE WILL ONLY WORK WITH THE IBX DONATION SKIN. IF YOU ARE DOING IT TO A DEFAULT SKIN YOU WILL HAVE TO USE THE CODE IN THE FIRST POST.

Great job Chris! :D

Actually mine came out looking even more uniformed. That's odd (two rows all the way actross) :woot:

Wendy did you add that clock to the bottom of the skin, or was it part of the skin?

Does this still work ?
Or is there another updated cleaner type that I can put on my board ?
