Hmm...
Ok to fix that runoff I changed the header width from 154% to 1540px. Now it's fixed to remain that width on any screen. It may be the toplinks login display that's pushing the search box over causing the header to expand. If that's the case I'll make the links backgrounds go away. I may resize the background image to match the header. If I do I'll have to shave off equal amounts on both sides to keep her from slipping under the forum list. Her ear is right on the edge of the list right now and that's just where I want it. Thankfully VB has position settings so you can place the background image right where you want it.
And the best news I have so far is I found through trial and error how to park a text message in the navbar. Right at the end of the toplinks opening div where it defines the class, I parked the text wrapped in a html print command. I then reposition the toplinks in the navbar and that was that.
Right now I'm working on getting rid of the bottom pagination. You have to be careful to not indiscriminately comment out or remove pagination statements. If you have multi-page threadlists and multi-page threads, you want them in there otherwise you'll never get past the first page. I just want to take out the bottom one.
Reason being the top pagination gets shoved around when you use position commands for other parts of the page such as toplinks and the navbar in the CSS. When you reposition the pagination, ALL of them move. Threadlist, postlist, and a lot of other places. There has to be a pagination bottom hook somewhere. I just haven't found it yet. I posted over at the mothership and awaiting a reply.
