Sorry Welshy, the comma is exactly on Line 478, Column 10, in the file, if that make sense, I know I can't explain it more than this . See this short video in action of how to find it: youtu.be/okcpcTHs6SE

I understand what Sargon is saying, and I can find the comma in the code, but I don't know how to upload it for the forum. ;D I'm a trainee here. My html knowledge is mostly copy/paste - what to copy and where to paste it.

Hmm, are you guys able to modify the the HTML file of the forum? I don't think so, I am just wondering where did that comma come from ;D

Thanks for the video Sargon. Now I know But I had to go into the Global Headers and Footers of the Forum and trawl through all the code until I found a stray comma and then the words div=class. People like Del' and all t'others who work with lines and lines of code have my utmost respect. My eyes are zinging after about half an hour or so. Mission Accomplished !!! I'm so happy. I can stop stressing about all the time it was taking and concentrate on the final graphics for the Ebony skin. Then I can knock on Del's door for help with css. for a funky scrollbar I agree with Del about the buttons. A comp would be great. And one for new random banners - I had to delete the old hack and kept Goon's out the 3 because he's the more regular contributor here. Nothing more sinister than that (... I'm really not that petty ) @ 'Penny ... my html knowledge is like yours - that's why I have to use the codes from kind people who publish them I'll have to knock up a tut as to how the Admin panel works if you want ? BTW ... requests for custom skins for individual users not a problem

Ok a comp for the banner it is. I'll work out the details & get it up when I come home from work.
With the buttons, would they remain the same for each skin option or does each skin have its own colours/style.
Let me know please & I'll get that up too.

Each skin can have unique graphics and buttons/ icons.

Just taken another look at Ebony and I`m well impressed! Looks much nicer than before and I think I might be sticking with it.I like the central location of the banner. Thanks very much Welshy for the time and effort put in making it. I might tone down the text a bit to a not so bright white using No Squint.

New dark skin looks pretty good. I personally prefer dark skin over light skins, but the red skins were a bit too hard on my eyes, so I was using the default skin all this time. I think I'll start using this dark one for now. Though I like dark skins, the background parts that are #000 are a bit too dark, but that's just my personal taste.
Will the Ebony skin eventually become the default skin of the site? I ask because when I sign out, the site goes back to the default skin.

I'll have to knock up a tut as to how the Admin panel works if you want ? Oh yes, please! I haven't even used my shiny new password yet, and haven't ventured farther than clicking a few buttons. Luckily I haven't blown up anythig yet. I'm feeling a bit like an idiot with this, when I read Delpart's posts it's like another language except for a few words. Hard to believe I have a diploma in Data Processing isn't it? Although, being 30 years old it's about as useful as my Bachelor of Square Dancing from when I was 13.

I love your sense of humour ;D ;D I had a good chuckle at the last paragraph. I wish I were younger to have enough brain-cells left to get my head around things like css or any other coding ways. Deepest apologies but my weekend didn't pan out as I expected ... it's on my to do/ catch up list I'm happy the mouseover I made with PDN hasn't drawn any complaints on the Ebony skin ...

I had a good laugh from BP's last paragraph, too. You'll all do well, I'm sure of it.

I`ve just gone back to the default skin. Black is nice but I prefer a brighter forum colour. Shame the Default has not got the same buttons for the Home,NewTopics,Help etc.. at the top of the page. They are a definite improvement no matter what colour you use.

In the interests of streamlining the boards I'm thinking of deleting the Red Lined skin from Profiles.
Any thoughts against this ?

I am using the black, and I think I will stick with it or the default, so it is fine to me.

I am using black (Ebony?) & unless there is a dark purple one, I'll probably stick with it.

I'm using black too, so it makes no difference to me.
