There are many things about phpBB that make things a nightmare to play with ;) Anyways, like I say, I'm at work right now but I'll sort this out later ;)

I feel your pain mate, i really do...the number of times i have refused to visit a site because of the colour of some links...life can be a real bitch sometimes...if only i had something better to worry about...actually, come to think of it, the border colour of the forum isn't to my liking...the shade of #e5e5e5 really is a little dark...any chance of a lighter shade...say #eaeaea? how about a toggle?
